Girls into Geoscience (GiG) is becoming more than just an event. It has become a network, supporting women in geology and those aspiring to be. Get involved!
This exciting event will introduce female A level students to the Earth sciences and demonstrate the world of careers open to Earth science graduates today.
We'll be back for our 11th event this July with even more workshops, talks, Q&As, and of course the chance to get out in the field with some of our female geoscientists.
