The GiraMinds represents an initiative dedicated to promoting scientific dissemination in the field of Engineering, with special attention to gender equality and reducing dropout rates in engineering courses. Through the ABCM JOVEM PI Student Chapter, It aims to organize lectures and workshops with researchers and professionals from all over Brazil.
In addition, the project aims to offer academic support to students at the Technology Center of Technology is helping to overcome one of the challenges that lead to dropout rates in engineering courses. Another important aspect is to spark interest in Engineering among high school students in public schools, through workshops, visits to the Technology Center laboratory and Engineering Fairs.
TUTORING PROGRAM
The Giraminds tutoring program is an initiative aimed at students who wish to acquire experience in lecturing, helping, and class management, but do not meet the formal requirements required by SIGAA. Our focus is on the “basic cycle” and hard subjects, which often do not have a tutor by UFPI due to bureaucracy or the complexity of the content. Tutoring is free and offers a collaborative environment to reinforce studies, clarify doubts and provide mutual assistance between students. Activities take place online or in person, ensuring flexibility for monitors and participants.
Subjects covered: Physics I, II and III; Calculus I, II and III; Mechanics I; Fluid Mechanics I; Resistance of Materials I and II.

K-12
The K-12 Project, developed by ASHRAE Piauí Student Branch (SB), is an initiative of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) aimed at educating elementary and high school students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Focusing on interactive learning, the project seeks to awaken young people's interest in these areas through practical activities and immersive experiences, encouraging curiosity and active participation in the scientific and technological universe.
