TULSA, Okla. –<\/p>\n
At Oklahoma Technical College, automotive technology student Kylie Tate is one of the women preparing for a career in the industry<\/p>\n
Tate\u2019s interest in automotive work started with her grandfather, who owned a Texaco gas station. Now, she hopes to own a station one day<\/p>\n
Tate says Oklahoma Tech\u2019s program gives students the opportunity to take what they learn in the classroom and apply it in a hands-on shop environment<\/p>\n
As Oklahoma continues to need skilled workers, Tate believes more women should consider careers in technical trades<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it\u2019s really important for younger girls and women to know that they\u2019re needed in this industry just as much as men,\u201d Tate said. \u201cYou don\u2019t always need, like, a big, strong guy. So sometimes you need smaller hands or just a different thought process.\u201d<\/p>\n
Oklahoma Tech currently has 11 women enrolled in its skilled trades programs, making up roughly 11% of the school\u2019s skilled trades student population. School officials hope that number continues to grow as more women consider careers in industries that have traditionally been male-dominated<\/p>\n
Tate says women considering a career in the skilled trades shouldn\u2019t be discouraged by the traditionally male-dominated nature of the industry<\/p>\n
\u201cI would tell them to go for it,\u201d Tate said. \u201cI mean, there\u2019s really no downsides. I mean, you get kind of dirty, and you can\u2019t have your nails done, but I think it\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n
