¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Engineering celebrates INWED 2023

20 June 2023

Every International Women in Engineering Day (June 23) ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Engineering takes the opportunity to showcase and champion our fantastic female students, researchers and academics. Take a look at 2023’s video interviews to discover more.

¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Engineering: International Women in Engineering Day 2023. Features 4 images of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº researchers: Eva Sorensen, Charlotte Maughan Jones, Ella Cockbain, Carmen Salvatores Fernandez

National Women in Engineering Day was originally launched in the UK on 23 June 2014 by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES), in order to celebrate its 95th anniversary. Receiving UNESCO patronage in 2016, the initiative became international for the first time in 2017, adopting its now familiar moniker, INWED, and enabling the celebration of women in engineering to become global.

As part of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Engineering's INWED 2023Ìýcelebrations, representatives from across ourÌýdepartments have been interviewed about their research, telling us how they are changing the world.

We'll be adding new videos throughout the week, so keep an eye out on this page!Ìý

Prof Eva Sorensen (¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Chemical Engineering) explains how mathematical modelling and computational modelling can be used to help solve some of the world's biggest challenges. Eva primarily focuses on modelling to help optimise and control separation processes to make them more sustainable, and also on pharmaceuticals to design better processes to make high purity medicines.

Dr Ella Cockbain
