Comments from past attendees:

  • Coming to this event has really helped expand my understanding of what engineering is like and has answered many of my questions.  I'm very thankful for events such as these as I decide what to do for university.
  • It was a really great experience to meet people from the engineering background with diverse experiences.  It gave me a practical view and idea about engineering as a career.  Thanks a lot for the knowledge!!
  • It's really nice to see and hear how other women in engineering have succeeded and the process of it.  It's really encouraging.
