In most countries, women still represent less than 20% of the engineering workforce in industry and academia. Organized by the DEI committee, the DS is launching 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 will 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.
These talks are open to everyone, and you're encouraged to invite colleagues and interested students. All sessions will take place online on the first Wednesday of each of the next six months, at the same time. Recordings will be available on the Design Society website.
