    • About Us

    The mission of the Engineer Factory is to increase the number of students from underrepresented populations (girls and students of color) who pursue higher education and careers in Engineering and STEM. This is accomplished through: hands-on, project-based learning opportunities (STEM workshops); participation in engineering competitions; academic support; professional development for educators; exposure and linkages to the engineering industry; mentoring; strategic alliances and partnerships with engineering-related programs; and by awarding scholarships to deserving high school seniors.

    Math is often an impediment to STEM success for girls and students in underserved communities. The Engineer Factory has received a contract from the California State University Chancellor's Office to conduct a six-week Summer Algebra Institute in Inglewood. The goal is to strengthen promising students' math skills.
