Windsor Engineering will introduce the profession to girls in grades 7-10 during a day of activities Saturday, October 24. Go Engineering Girl is part of a province-wide effort to encourage youngsters to visit their local universities to learn about the exciting world of engineering.

The Windsor event runs 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Centre for Engineering Innovation and involves hands-on projects for the students while parents hear from a panel of engineers, students, faculty and staff about careers in the field and life in university.

Go Engineering Girl is free, but registration is limited and spots will fill up quickly. Register online at http://www.onwie.ca/programs/go-eng-girl/go-eng-girl-registration-form. More information is available on the local page: www.uwindsor.ca/goenggirl.
