Queen's women in engineering logo

Women have faced significant obstacles in STEM careers over time and continue to be under-represented in these industries.  According to Engineers Canada, only 18 per cent of working engineers licensed in Canada are women.

Our goal is to increase both the number of women pursuing engineering and the retention of existing women in the field.
