WISE
Whether it is media images, pressure from friends or inappropriate advice, young
women often don’t consider some of the most interesting and best paid jobs.
WISE believe that girls should be given the option to choose from the widest
variety of career options, and not be limited by outdated thinking.
WISE encourages girls to stick with maths and physics,
and consider careers in the areas of science,
engineering and construction enabling young women
into successful careers which can change the world.
We do this by listening to girls and understanding
their concerns, then communicating these messages to
the wider world.
The Academy makes a substantial financial contribution to the WISE Campaign and our CEO
is currently on the WISE board.
