What do a reliability engineer from PEME Process Control, an aircraft engineering officer from the Army Air Corps and a systems engineer from GE Aviation Systems all have in common? They are three of the eight finalists in the Young Woman Engineer of the Year Awards 2011.
The winner is due to be announced at a ceremony on Dec 1st organised by the Institute of Engineering and Technology and sponsored by GCHQ, Siemens and Intel amongst others. The award is to "honour the very best female engineers under the age of 30 working in the UK today," according to the IET."It seeks to highlight the achievements of women in engineering and to encourage others to enter the profession."
The ceremony, at Savoy Place in London and hosted by Mylene Klass, is free to attend (register online for a place) with opportunities to network and visit career displays from the event's sponsors. More details from www.theiet.org/events/2011/ywe.cfm
