Thanks. We actually attended a "Girls in Engineering" program that they run there when my daughter was younger. I really like the effort they are making to recruit girls into technology.

So far, she just likes programming (using VB in high school this year; will have Java next year) and hasn't thought far enough ahead to consider where she might go with it. I would guess that she'd be more inclined towards an engineering track over a math/science track. I would guess she'd be more interested in building things that people use now than a more research and development orientation.
