TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Today\u2019s something good is designed to be empowering!<\/p>\n
Fourth-year mechanical engineering student Madison Devoux couldn\u2019t help but notice there were only a few girls in her classes at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. <\/p>\n
More good news:<\/p>\n
Devoux is determined to change that, so she\u2019s written a children\u2019s book called \u201cHope is an Engineer\u201d to encourage more girls to pursue STEM education. <\/p>\n
\u201cAfter reading this book, I hope little girls will take away that you can be in engineering, STEM is not a man\u2019s game, it\u2019s not a woman\u2019s game, it\u2019s everyone\u2019s game and this is accessible to you and you can excel in the field of engineering,\u201d Devoux said. \u201cYou can be anything you want to be if you work hard and believe in yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Devoux hopes the book will inspire young girls to explore careers in engineering. <\/p>\n
She can hardly believe that the idea is now a real book – available on Amazon! <\/p>\n
