Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM Fields) are frequently thought of as a “boys’ club” in both school and the workforce. However, four influential Pittsburgh women are utilizing their unique skills to help bridge the gender gap and encourage other women to pursue their dreams of succeeding in tech. These women are reducing barriers to entry by engineering ways through which they can break up the stagnate climate within STEM Industries. These women understand that the need to support the growth of these industries is crucial to the city’s future and that it cannot be done without the input of the female perspective. By offering all women access to machine workshops, coding programs, and entrepreneurial centers we can hope for a more inclusive climate and further success for the City of Pittsburgh.
