Friday, 13 November 2026 | Dexcom Stadium, Galway
Galway Science & Technology Festival, in collaboration with Network Ireland, is delighted to host a special Girls in STEM event at Dexcom Stadium on Friday, 13 November for students from Transition Year to Leaving Certificate.
This event will give female students an exciting opportunity to explore the wide range of careers available across Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and to meet the people and organisations shaping the future of these sectors in Galway and beyond.
Throughout the event, students will have the opportunity to visit exhibition stands from local companies and organisations, discover different STEM industries and career pathways, and speak directly with professionals working across a variety of roles.
The programme will also feature inspiring speakers and panel discussions focused on careers in STEM, giving students the chance to hear first-hand about different career journeys, opportunities and experiences. The aim is to broaden students’ understanding of what a career in STEM can look like and encourage more young women to see themselves as part of the next generation of scientists, engineers, technologists and innovators.
With Galway home to a thriving cluster of technology, medtech, engineering and research organisations, this event provides an important opportunity to connect young women with the region’s STEM community and help build the talent pipeline of the future.
