NumFOCUS Women in Technology Workshop for High School Girls

As part of PyData NYC’s diversity initiative, we are proud to be holding a free Women in Technology Workshop for high school girls. The workshop, made possible through NumFOCUS and the generous sponsorship of JP Morgan, hopes to increase awareness and excitement around opportunities for women in software engineering. We have 49 confirmed attendees from 4 area high schools. The workshop will be held in conjunction with Tutorials on Friday, Nov. 8th. The full-day will include hands-on workshops and demos, where young women will be exposed to a variety of examples which display the fun, power, and possibilities from programming in Python. The day will also include a panel, where female software engineers and attendees can discuss how Python, and programming in general, is influencing and shaping the working world.

Diversity Scholarships

We are proud to announce that Diversity Scholarships are available for PyData NYC. These awards are made possible through NumFOCUS, the generous sponsorship of our Diamond Partner, JP Morgan, as well as our Diversity Scholarship partners Data Nitro and Data Pad.

We are committed to fostering a diverse community and culture that respects and values our attendees differences. We strongly encourage any women or members of other under-represented groups to apply. Please send us a short email, including your name and reason for wanting to attend PyData NYC, to admin@pydata.org by 10/29/13.
