Girls Who Code

 

Summer Immersion Program
Washington, DC
June 27 - August 12, 2016

To empower more young women to pursue degrees and careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields, BSA | The Software Alliance, along with AOL, AT&T, Capital One, and Lockheed Martin are sponsoring the Washington, DC, area’s second Girls Who Code Summer Immersion Program. The Girls Who Code program, which kicked off June 27, brings 120 young women from throughout the DC region to Georgetown University’s downtown campus for seven weeks of intensive instruction in computing skills, ranging from mobile app development to web design to robotics.

In addition to learning to code, students hear from influential industry leaders and government officials inside the classroom, and take field trips around DC to meet with leaders in technology and government. The Summer Immersion Program also includes informal mentorship opportunities focusing on career and educational development, where students are paired with leading female executives from the DC area.
