Hyderabad: With an aim to upskill girl students in the field of data science, WE Hub has launched a new programme. Being done in partnership with Women in Data Science (WiDS), Stanford University and Mathworks, the initiative aims to upskill girl students. The seven-week programme will offer 100 girl students from selected schools an opportunity to gain skills in the data science field.

This initiative aims at encouraging more girls to pursue STEM courses as well as understand the impact of data science in their career choice, a statement said.

Among the eight schools selected for the programme – four are from Telangana – Sreenidhi International School, Chirec International School, Keystone International School and Oakridge International School – and one each from Karnataka, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra, and Assam – Stonehill International School, Foundation World School, Ascend International School and Delhi Public School, Guwahati, respectively.

Telangana IT and Industries department Principal Secretary Jayesh Ranjan said they are looking at this programme as a model which will be executed year on year on a larger scale.

The schools will conduct aptitude tests using WE Hub’s test format, and 12-13 girls will be selected from each school for rigorous training from WE Hub and Stanford’s WiDS over the next seven weeks. The programme will also include a two-day workshop on January 7 and 8 which will be attended by 24 teachers from the eight schools. Teachers and students will be trained by MathWorks and on the final day of the programme, the ‘Girls in STEM’ conference will be conducted in Hyderabad.

WE Hub CEO Deepthi Ravula said, “We have implemented 23 programmes so far, however the WiDS programme implemented for 100 girl students across India is a new experience for us. Not just technical skills, the focus is on developing complimentary skills through creating a platform for cross border learning.”
