Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for writing about this! My 3 daughters attend school in Western Australia that has a strong focus on science and there would be many recent graduates who may be eligible to apply! I have sent the details to the school. It’s great to see a corporation getting behind women entering STEM study. I enjoy your blog very much! Warm regards Talia Hagon
