BrainCake : Who We Are

Headline: Who

The Girls, Math & Science Partnership's mission is to engage, educate, and embrace girls as architects of change. Working with girls age 11 - 17 and their parents, teachers, and mentors, we draw organizations, stakeholders, and communities together in an effort to ensure that girls succeed in math and science.

Welcome to the Girls, Math & Science Partnership, a program of Carnegie Science Center.

If this is your first BrainCake experience, enjoy! BrainCake is one of many programs we have at the Girls, Math & Science Partnership. We are proud to have a website that reaches girls from around the globe who are interested in changing the world with math and science!

For many of you, you've been to BrainCake many times, or experienced one of our programs or events. You view this site as a resource - a resource for yourself, your daughter, a student in your classroom, or someone you mentor. The Girls, Math & Science Partnership is exactly that - an innovative, compelling, high-quality resource for education, information, research and advocacy on gender equality in the sciences. In order to take full advantage of the site, we’d like to invite you to become a member. Membership offers a few resources not usable to non-members, such as the ability to post on our “We Hear That” forum. You also get cool updates from GMSP about upcoming events, cool current science news, and a notification when something cool gets added to the site.

We're here to help girls be confident, solve problems, and think independently. We engage girls in current science, helping them understand its relevance to their life today. We create and link girls to programs that educate and prepare them to understand and use science in their everyday lives. And, we embrace girls as architects of change - envisioning, planning, organizing, shaping, and building a better world - with math and science as their tools.

We know girls can change the world. We're just a great resource to help.
