WOMEN AT WORK
Surviving the Challenges of Career Engineers in this World
38% of women engineers leave the field (one in four women vs one in ten men after the age of 35). AAUW’s most recent research indicates that the work environment is a primary factor. To further our mission, we will hear from some outstanding women engineers on the challenges and solutions for women today.
