Do you think women are fully supported to pursue an engineer career?

If not - tell us how you think they should be in the comments below

  • I do accept fully that women often have to 'prove' themselves far more than their male counterparts, but I consider myself lucky to work for a company that actively encourages women in engineering, from STEM/STEAM events in schools to celebrating the incredible engineers we have working for us.

     

    Unfortunately I also come across dinosaurs who become rather agitated that we celebrate 'women in engineering' but not men! There was no shifting his viewpoint on this one, but we call him 'Victorian Dad' for a reason.

     

    Hopefully more women come into the engineering workplace, but we need to attract them and pique their interest early on.
