This STEM Day, we are celebrating India's remarkable surge in female participation in STEM courses, with a record-breaking 42.6% of women enrolled in higher education. STEM skills are essential for fostering problem-solving abilities and driving innovation in the youth. With an estimated 80% of upcoming jobs requiring STEM skills, the government is paving the way for a more inclusive future in STEM through initiatives like SERB-POWER (Promoting Opportunities for Women in Exploratory Research), ensuring women researchers have the resources they need to thrive. As a champion of women's empowerment through education, #InfosysFoundation has recently launched the STEM Stars Scholarship Program with the aim of empowering underprivileged female students with an annual scholarship of up to INR 1 lakh to pursue their undergraduate #STEMEducation.
