Community outreach
WIMS is proud to partner with the Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland to put on an annual event to help spark an interest at a young age in STEM subjects in our future physicians, engineers, scientists, and mathematicians. “Detective for a Day” puts the girls’ problem-solving skills to the test as they attempt to solve a mystery using math, science, and technology.
​
This event is hosted every Spring at The Ohio State University’s Ohio Union. More information, including details on registration, can be found on the GSOH website.
​
In addition to our "Detective for a Day" event, WIMS offers smaller-scale outreach programs that introduce STEM topics in a fun, interactive manner at Columbus-area libraries, schools, and after-school programs. Please feel free to reach out if your organization is interested in hosting WIMS for a program.
