Object Curation: Early Initiatives for Women in STEM at SDSU

This flier, advertising a workshop titled “Careers for Women in Science and Engineering”, marks an early incidence of continued initiatives to promote the inclusion of women in STEM fields. Notably, this flier indicates that both the event’s co-directors were members of SDSU’s Women’s Studies department, which had then only existed for a few years. Also notable are the local businesses listed as sponsors for the workshop, all of whom could stand to benefit from the introduction of more female graduates into the STEM workforce.
