Women in Engineering Forum

Please join us for this event to empower, connect, and inspire women in engineering - staff, students and professionals by:

• fostering a supportive community
• highlighting the contributions of women in engineering and
• showcasing career pathways

We also welcome allies and advocates of gender diversity and inclusion to join us in supporting and celebrating women in engineering.

The event will be a panel discussion followed by lunch & networking, facilitated by Karen Surmon, General Manager, Women & Leadership Australia.
