Celebrate International Women in Engineering Day!

This year International Women in Engineering Day celebrates the amazing work that women engineers around the world are doing, and not just to respond to the pandemic but also to support lives and livelihoods every day.

INWED will be profiling the best, brightest and bravest women in engineering, who recognise a problem, then dare to be part of the solution; who undertake everyday ‘heroics’ as much as emergency ones.

It’s all about Engineering Heroes!
