Women in STEM

The University of South Australia Women in STEM club is a great network that supports women entering non-traditional fields such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This club invites all students, men, and women, who are studying, researching, and pursuing careers in STEM fields to join us.

STEM includes a range of different disciplines including, but not limited to Aviation, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Engineering, IT, Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, and Medical Science. The club provides excellent opportunities for members to network between themselves and establishes a network with professional women and men in the workforce.

We aim to connect all women by promoting an inclusive culture through community involvement. Join us by clicking the join button for free
