She said the program helps to encourage girls to get into STEM subjects.   “We really like the practical and community focused approach this program takes,” Soheil said.   “It uses STEM to provide solutions to real world problems, making it practical and approachable to young people, which can sometimes be a challenge when encouraging engagement in STEM subjects,” Soheil said.   The funds provided by Monadelphous will go towards funding HunterWise activities throughout the year.  We look forward to sharing more updates soon.  Find out more about [HunterWise](https://www.newcastle.edu.au/research/centre/hunterwise).   ![In The Loop March5](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/In%20The%20Loop%20March5.jpg?width=600&height=338&name=In%20The%20Loop%20March5.jpg)   ## Leave a comment Previous Post From undergraduate to superintendent Next Post On track in the Eastern Region ## Recommended For You [![](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hubfs/Building%20STEM%20skills%20for%20local%20students.png)](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/in-the-loop/building-stem-skills-for-local-students) [Sustainability](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/in-the-loop/tag/sustainability) [QLD](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/in-the-loop/tag/qld) 1 Min Read ### [Building STEM skills for local students](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/in-the-loop/building-stem-skills-for-local-students) In May we supported the Yallarm 2022 STEM camp, a unique and hands-on opportunity for local year 8 Indigenous ...
