Awards
- We were awarded Athena Swan Bronze status, in recognition of our direct support for women within the School, enabling women who study with us to transition successfully into industry. The Athena Swan project is a charter scheme, aiming to address issues around gender and diversity. Our Women’s Engineering Network - a friendly group of women students and staff - regularly meet to explore all aspects of engineering and to offer each other mutual support at university and beyond.
Work in industry
Slide 1 of 1
Working in industry is a complete eye opener. With first-hand experience to the technology you don’t have access to, or you can’t read about in a textbook, you can come back and apply your knowledge to your final years at uni.
