For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics Description An account of the resource The "Science/Technology/Engineering/Mathematics" (STEM) collection highlights those women who dared in the fields of science, medicine, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It also highlights female intellectuals who were excluded from formal methods of education, but who advanced our collective knowledge of the aforementioned fields. Even in the 21st century, women are underrepresented in these fields. The women portrayed in this collection provide examples of excellence in STEM studies and inspire us to continue integrating these areas. Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Birth Date 1867 Birthplace Warsaw, Poland Death Date 1934 Occupation Scientist Biographical Text Curie was a Polish chemist and physicist who began her work in the sciences at a young age. She left Warsaw to pursue her degree at the Sorbonne, because women were not allowed to study at the University of Warsaw. Curie gained a graduate degree at a time when many women were banned from academic study. She is famous for her work with radium. She is not only the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, but the only woman to win in two fields. Her work revolutionized scientific research.
