Our Story

SPARK is UConn’s latest initiative to shrink the STEM gender gap. Participants will choose between 4 different STEM themed sessions to be a part of.

Why did UConn create a program specifically for girls? Because females remain significantly underrepresented in certain STEM fields, particularly computer science and engineering. This matters because when females are included in engineering and software design, it results in better products for everyone. Research shows that the best way to motivate female computer science and engineering students is to provide engaging programs in a majority-female environment.

Why SPARK? Because…

Women are underrepresented in STEM fields.
