The goal of SciGirls is to encourage girls to find a passion of science, technology, engineering and math - or STEM. Each 30-minute episode highlights scientific and engineering processes following a different set of middle school girls who design their own inquiry-based investigations with the help of scientist mentors. The mentors offer the students a glimpse of exciting STEM career possibilities.
