S.C.O.R.E, INC was designed by its founders two minority sister doctors to expose, empower & encourage young women to pursue a STEM degree. Women are not pursuing STEM degrees or careers at that same rate as men. Women remain a minority in STEM careers, women made up 24% of the STEM working force in 2015. These numbers are even more alarming for women of color, making up only 10% of working scientists and engineers.

Join us and our moderator,  Jennifer Ponder, as we engage in a panel discussion made up of a broad range of women who have been successful in STEM fields and can add insight to their unique experiences on their career paths. 

Panel Guest:

Science: Robyn Hutchinson, PharmD- Consultant Pharmacist, Xavier University

              Janine Best, BioScience Quality Control, Spelman College

Technology: Kathline Durden, CyberSecurity Consultant, Florida A&M

Engineering: Dr. Cherise M. Burton, Sr. Lead Project Manager, Industrial Engineer, The University of the Virgin Islands

Math: Shawnetta Ray, Director OPAS Foundation FAA, Security, Western Kentucky University

The event is $5.00/ticket for adults and $2.00/ticket for female students 12-18 yrs of age.  ALL proceeds go towards 2020 Summer Healthcare Internship Scholarships to high school girls with interests in STEM fields.
