Girls in STEM – Renewable Energy

Calling all newcomer girls in high school! If you are a go getter, a high achiever, if you have an interest in science and technology, this program is for you!

You have heard of renewable energy, but what is it??? How do you know if the energy you use is renewable or not? What does an environmental engineer do? How can green energy lead to a low-carbon future? Explore these questions and build your own renewable energy powered creations at home! Join us for this hands-on workshop presented by Melina, Julee, and Keri from McMaster’s Women in Engineering Society.

What you’ll need: 2 paper, plastic, or styrofoam cups (paper or styrofoam is preferred), 1 long wooden skewer, 1 push pin or single hole punch, sticky tack (nice to have, but optional), tape, scissors, pencil, ruler, string, and a paper clip.
