Welcome to Miss STEM International
Miss STEM International believes in leading change rather than following the norms. Malala once said, “When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.” Our organization aims to increase female representation in the science and math fields by providing opportunities to cultivate their interest in STEM careers and become future leaders. A related mission is to target the social stigmas that minorities aren’t “smart” enough or “good” enough to be in STEM.
We seek to develop innovative minds through our STEM programs and workshops throughout the year.

What is STEM? |
Mission Statement: |
STEM is the common abbreviation for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. We live in the Digital Age, an era defined by the drastic shift from a society dependent on traditional industry to a society that is based upon the integration of technology into our daily lives. Research has shown that introducing the experimental nature of science, and the problem-solving focus of mathematics and engineering, will generate a growth mindset that will continue through adulthood.

Miss STEM is designed to spark interest in STEM careers and to develop communication, problem-solving, and creativity skills in young women. We cultivate a culture where curiosity is encouraged and creativity is expected. Miss STEM inspires and builds confidence – applicable to all members, whether or not they pursue careers in science, technology, engineering or math. This organization meets the needs of diverse learners and addresses the under-representation of diversity in STEM fields.
What we do:We engage in innovative and creative applications of a variety of STEM fields, including, but not limited to: Engineering, Medicine, Physics and Computer Science. We make it easy for STEM professionals to connect with underrepresented and under-resourced youth of high intellect and deep interest in the STEM field.
