Web mentoring program encourages girls to get wired on engineering, science - Lauren LaRose, Candian Press
Elizabeth Cannon, dean of the Schulich School of Engineering at the University of Calgary, said they wanted to establish an ongoing program that was also able to reach young women beyond Calgary and Edmonton, since a significant proportion of the province's population lives in rural areas.
