Nuns, teachers and… scientists!

Science is not a domain reserved for men, neither today nor in the… XIXand century. In its new temporary exhibition Nuns, teachers and… scientists!, the Marguerite-Bourgeoys Historic Site tells how the Ursulines and the Congrégation de Notre-Dame set up innovative science teaching programs for female students, at a time when the education of women was little valued. Laboratory instruments, school work and scientific objects are part of this exhibition. Presented on April 28, it also retraces the winding path that led women to be able to study and work in science.
