The Middle Tennessee State University Women In STEM Center is the home to the first Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) Conference in the state. At EYH, girls have the opportunity to work closely with female STEM role models and mentors as well as with other girls who have an interest in STEM. For over 20 years, Tennessee girls have said that EYH is helpful in clarifying their future. Our data show that we are reaching girls and impacting their future education and career choices. This, in turn, will make an impact on the future STEM workforce in Tennessee and across the south. We will present our data and provide information about our EYH workshops that focus on careers in the chemical sciences. We also will provide information on how to establish an EYH site at your campus or in your town.
