WiE Talk Series

Panel Discussion: Women in Engineering

In most countries, women still represent less than 20% of the engineering workforce in industry and academia. Organised by the EDI committee, the DS launched a series of online talks to encourage women to explore opportunities for careers in engineering, fostering diversity, innovation, and equality in the field. Women from academia and industry describe their experiences and efforts to encourage more women to pursue an engineering degree and subsequently enter engineering leadership. These talks are motivated to inspire change and provide insight into creating inclusive environments. This panel represents women in engineering, with backgrounds in both Industry and Academia - available to watch now!
