The Supercomputing Challenge honored 12 women in their 2018 New Mexico Women of STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) calendar. These women represent the diversity of New Mexico. They were chosen for the grace and grit at which they pursue life and career.
The theme for this year’s calendar is the Passion Flower, signifying the passion that guided these women to pursue their careers.
