"The Association for Women Geoscientists (AWG) is an international organization devoted to enhancing the quality and level of participation of women in the geosciences and to introducing girls and young women to geoscience careers." Visitors can learn about possible funding, awards, internships, and employment. The Web site offers two publications discussing technical and career-development issues, job notices, and meetings: Gaea, the AWG bi-monthly publication, and AWG e-mail news. High school students can discover the Student Challenge Awards Program, where a select few are given the opportunity to work beside experienced scientists. Educators can find out about upcoming science fairs such as the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. If interested, visitors can also become a member of the organization.
