UPC wants to up their number of female students

Only 25% of the students of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC in Catalan) are women. To increase this percentage, the UPC is running the “Aquí STEAM” program which plans to encourage 9 to 14 year-old girls to consider science related careers. The programme aims to help the UPC get up to 30% female students over the next 5 years and up to 50% “as soon as possible”.
