National STEM Society
To foster an inclusive approach toward underrepresented youth to cultivate their interest in fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
A nonprofit resource to educate, discover, explore and research Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
Why is STEM so important?
STEM education opportunities are becoming more and more important to fulfill the need to increase the occupational needs in fields Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
How can we help? Professionals in the field of STEM or college students with at least 2-3 years of study in a STEM field would be useful for educating our youth K-12 to support teachers, community leaders, recreational centers and other nonprofit organizations with sharing knowledge in the interest and activity of STEM occupations and education.
On a mission
Our Professional Women in STEM Network (PWS Network) is on a mission to build the largest database of professional women in STEM education, careers, and fields globally. At 800+ active members in global communities across cultures, we have learned “Why we are here?” Some call it our divine purpose to make a tremendous impact on lives of young girls and women who need the extra support during pursuit of a higher education ambition, diving into entrepreneurship, or becoming a change agent in STEM education, careers, and fields around the world.
Through PWS Network continued education and research we have determined, we are on the right track toward a full speed ahead approach toward building a 1 million Professional Women in STEM Network in 10 years, starting with the foundation of the intellectual property of a Data Scientist creation of a team of 75 professional women in STEM 4 years ago. Today the network is 800+ Professional Women in STEM we call teachers on a mission to teach, coach and mentor girls and women through our experiences and expertise to work, stay, learn, and play in the world of STEM education, careers and fields.
Become a member toward impacting the statistics of girls and women in STEM!

Happy Hump Day! Of the National Engineers Week!
We know it’s been awhile since our last post but have been so busy preparing for our upcoming event for Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day #SPARKSTEM @nationalstemsociety we host on Monday of the annual National Engineering Week. We had a successful showcase of STEM at Ciena Corporation for 30 students to educate, initiate and innovate young minds of tomorrow. We are so thankful to our father in heaven to give us the strength necessary to pull off our 28th hosted SPARK STEM Day in corporate America. We, Professional Women in STEM Network of 800+ women share our Network with our youth to give them the opportunity to be introduced to education, careers and fields in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics to peek their young interest in continued education best practices to succeed in the robust world of STEM. Women, we only makeup 22% of the global STEM careers and fields don’t you think it’s time we level the playing field. Let’s do this with the @nationalstemsociety collaboration with @pinkleaderboard to impact the world of STEM education, careers and fields! All the best on this beautiful Wednesday. God bless and God speed.

Students vs. Science
Reported from http://www.streamconnect.org “The National Science Teacher Association (NSTA) in a report released two years ago said: “Teachers of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are discovering that by adding an “A”—the arts—to STEM, learning will pick up STEAM. Students remember science learning situations that contain multi-sensory, hands-on activities or experiments.” which the arts can bring to science lessons.”
