International Women in Engineering Day

International Women in Engineering Day is held on June 23. National Women in Engineering Day was launched for the first time in the UK on 23 June 2014 by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) to celebrate its 95th anniversary. Since that launch in 2014 the day has grown enormously over the subsequent years to the point where it received UNESCO patronage in 2016. In 2017, National Women in Engineering Day became international for the first time due to the interest and enthusiasm developed by the international audience and participants in the previous years. This event in the third decade of the month June is annual. Help us Help us

There are now a higher number of women with university degrees graduating than their male counterparts. 23 June marks International Women in Engineering Day. A day to raise awareness and profile of women in STEM roles.
61% of engineering employers say recruitment of engineering and technical staff with the right skills is a barrier to business. Companies are 15% more likely to perform better if they are gender diverse.
Awareness initiatives such as International Women in Engineering Day, school programmes and the use of a specialist engineering recruitment agency, for example, are all helping to promote women into an industry presenting a huge diversity of interesting, exciting and rewarding roles.
