Kansas trailblazer Amelia Earhart made history on this day in 1932 when she became the first woman to fly solo, non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean. Her courage, determination, and pioneering spirit continue to inspire Kansans and Americans alike.

SWENexter Aleksandra shares how engineers can promote #EarthDay goals:
"It's all about protecting the environment & environmental engineers honor that goal in their careers. I'd like to explore water treatment systems & water resources solutions through my C&E engineering major!"

Meet Lillian Evelyn Gilbreth — Widely recognized as the first female Industrial Engineer ⚙️

Even while facing gender bias alongside raising 12 children, she kept designing and optimizing systems to make life easier for real people.

Because She Paved the Way.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! 💜✨

Today we’re celebrating the women who paved the way, the mentors who keep cheering girls on, and all the future engineers still figuring out what they want to build next!

That’s the power of #GiveToGain 💫

#WomensHistoryMonth is a celebration of women who changed the world 💜

Every woman making history today was once a girl with a big idea, a lot of questions, & the courage to try.

This month, we celebrate the women who paved the way in STEM for the future-history makers. 💫

[World Ocean Day @WorldOceansDay]

On the 17th of January, the High Seas Treaty has officially gone into force, marking a historic win for ocean protection. For the first time, our shared high seas can be safeguarded through marine protected areas, stronger rules, and global cooperation. This is a powerful step toward protecting ocean life, climate stability, and the future of our blue planet.
