A career in the STEM skilled trades can be exciting. And with companies realizing the importance of having a diverse workforce, doors are opening to opportunities for women.1 This is why Universal Technical Institute is dedicated to achieving gender equality in STEM-related fields.

“Go for it. If you want to be anything that isn’t the norm for women, go for it.”

What’s It Like to Attend a Women in STEM Skilled Trades Conference?

UTI’s Women in STEM Skilled Trades Conference events provide an interactive opportunity for female high school juniors and seniors and counselors to learn more about the careers available in transportation and other skilled STEM trades. They include:

  • A campus tour
  • Hands-on, project-based training exercises
  • A panel discussion featuring employers and successful women in the field

To help the next generation get its start, UTI is making up to $100,000 in tuition grants available, including a first-place award of up to $25,000.10 Any female high school junior and senior will be eligible to apply for a grant by completing an application and submitting a brief essay or selfie-style video.

"Women have traditionally been underrepresented in these sectors, but that's something we're eager to address by raising awareness about the career opportunities available across the skilled trades and STEM fields."

Jerome Grant | Universal Technical Institute CEO
