Innovative Young Minds (IYM)
At our weekly meeting we heard from Brian Smellie of Hutt City, one of the organisers of the Innovative Young Minds Programme held for the first time in July, and from Sophie Miller, one of the participants, who attends Samuel Marsden in Whitby. This was clearly a great initiative and Brian assured us that it will be repeated. IYM is a technology and innovation programme for young women in the Wellington region, targeted at Year 11 and 12 students.A technology and innovation programme for young women in the Wellington region
Innovative Young Minds (IYM) is designed to attract and engage young women to the field of technology. Targeted at Year 11 and Year 12 students, IYM was a week-long residential programme that ran from 9-14 July, 2017.
It’s well known that diversity in the workplace leads to more innovation. Women are under-represented in the STEMM sector (science, technology, engineering, mathematics and manufacturing) and Hutt Science (a Hutt City Council initiative), Rotary Hutt City and Hutt Valley High School want to change that.
Congratulations to everyone who completed the 2017 programme on the 14th July. Details for 2018 will be posted by October.
