On Thursday, Feb. 22, the College of Engineering will host about 200 high school girls for the Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day (IGED) event, commonly known as Girl Day. The event will be from 9:45 a.m. to 2 p.m. in 305/306 Rhatigan Student Center, Beggs Ballroom.
Although a private event, staff and faculty are encouraged to have positive interactions with students, educators and event volunteers when in common areas.

The purpose of IGED events is to foster a positive connection between young women and STEM.
