Julia Serna, Outreach Coordinator, creates an oscillating clock with a Walnut Elementary student in the Boys and Girls Club as part of a Fun With Chemistry event.
Women in Natural Sciences (WINS) seeks to promote science outreach programs for students in grades K-12, especially young women. WINS is also passionate about giving back to the Austin community through various volunteer opportunities.
WINS students have multiple opportunities throughout the year to share their love of science with students in local elementary and secondary schools. WINS students perform outreach at special educational events, mentor/tutor students in local independent school districts, and provide essential support for on-campus outreach events. The following outreach opportunities are available to any WINS student, past or present, to provide everyone with an opportunity to serve!
We participate in events and initiatives both on and off campus.
Such as:
- GirlStart
- The Thinkery
- Chemistry Outreach Program
- Girls in STEM Conference
- Austin Regional Science Festival
