The STEM Project at St. Paul’s School: Toward a Future with More Women in Science

At St. Paul’s School, we are dedicated to offering students the opportunity to explore their potential in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), developing critical 21st-century skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and technical competence. 

  

Our comprehensive STEM program emphasizes academic excellence and provides students with hands-on experiences to prepare them for future challenges. By fostering an inclusive learning environment, we ensure that all students can engage meaningfully with STEM disciplines. While STEM careers and degrees have historically been male dominated, we believe it is essential to encourage interest and participation in these areas for all students, particularly girls, who have been underrepresented in the past. 

 

This commitment aligns with global progress in STEM education, such as at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), which recently achieved a major milestone by enrolling a majority of women for the first time in its history.

 

With record participation in Bachillerato science and technology subjects this year, our students continue to demonstrate their enthusiasm for learning and growing in these critical fields. The dedication of our teachers, combined with innovative educational opportunities, ensures that our students are well-equipped to become future leaders in science and technology. 

  

At St. Paul’s, we are committed to cultivating a community where students gain the skills and confidence to shape the future of STEM.
