Encouraging Career Exploration in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math
For 50 years, the Expanding Your Horizons program has given middle-school girls in the Madison, Wisconsin area the opportunity to learn about potential careers in Math, Science, Technology, and Engineering. This site allows you to explore its history through photos, videos, and stories of the women who helped shape this program over the years.
History of EYH in Madison
Fifty years ago, many people believed that a woman’s place was in the home. Surrounded by dishes, food, laundry, and the family, a woman was in her element, where she was comfortable and efficient. For women that worked outside the home, careers in teaching and nursing were popular.
This wasn’t the case for all women, of course.
