The Nerd Girls reality tv show follows Tufts University professor Karen Panetta as she mentors her team of young women through hands-on engineering projects including building a solar-powered car.

Tufts university professor Karen Panetta started Nerd Girls in 2000

The Nerdgirls team is challenging the notion of what a geek should look like, either by intentionally sexing up their tech personas, or by simply finding no disconnect between their geeky pursuits and more traditionally girly interests such as fashion, makeup and high heels.

In fact, calling them “nerd” is no insult at all—the Nerd Girls have T shirts emblazoned with the slogan.

One of their role models is Ellen Spertus, a math professor with a Ph. D. who joined Google after winning the Sexiest Geek Alive contest in 2001 and strutted up to claim her crown wearing a circuit board corset and a high-slit skirt exposing a slide rule strapped to her leg.

“Back when the Nerd Girls began in 2000, people would say, ‘Why do you have to call yourselves nerds?’—like it was a bad thing,” says Panetta, the founder of the group and an electrical and computer-engineering professor at Tufts. “But I never get that question anymore. It’s OK, it’s smart, it’s cool to be a nerd, and the girls are just embracing that.”

Their all-girl solar car will compete in an international competition next year
