Design Your World – STEM Conference for Girls is the award-winning signature outreach event brought to you by the Society of Women Engineers Dallas Section, twice a year since 2012.

We invite girls in grade 6th through 8th from the greater Dallas area to experience a day of fun and learning through STEM activities.
