EngineerGirl is a brand that aims to bring national attention to the exciting opportunities that engineering represents for girls and women. Despite the increase in female participation in traditionally male-dominated professions like medicine and law, women are still underrepresented in engineering. EngineerGirl recognizes that diversity of thought is crucial to creativity and innovation, and by excluding women from the process, we limit our potential for progress.

The website, launched in 2001, is a service of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and was designed with input from a Girls Advisory Board. EngineerGirl offers a range of resources, including stories, interviews, news, and career information, to inspire and inform future female engineers. The ongoing work of EngineerGirl is overseen by the EngineerGirl Steering Committee with the support of generous sponsors.

EngineerGirl is committed to promoting the technological welfare of the nation and ensuring the representation of women in the engineering profession
