• Simultaneous Workshops: Practical sessions in Environmental, Systems, Electronic, and Civil Engineering, as well as Physics, Medicine, Genetics, and Economy.
• Integration Dynamics:Group exercises (“Puente de las Coincidencias”) to align students’ personal skills with technical careers.
• STEAM Fair: Networking spaces with university representatives and invited companies.
• Tinkercad Projects: Guided mentorship where student teams present digital engineering models and receive awards.

Impact & Goals
The event aims to reach approximately 120 local students, fostering at least 60% female participation. By providing direct interaction with active IEEE volunteers and female professionals, the conference delivers relatable role models to challenge gender stereotypes in engineering and empower underserved communities.
