University of Salford
University House,
Salford, M5 4WT, UK
Cost: around £15

Description


Who can attend: Girl Geeks! A lady who has an interest, or is involved in the Science, Engineering and Technology industries. Blokes can come
too, but you need an invite from a Geek Girl!

Cost: Around £15 (includes 3 course meal, coffee and drinks)

For those who haven't been before, it's dinner, wine, talks from inspirational women, networking and discussions afterwards.

Dress up as much as you like, for those of us who like to wear pretty dresses (I am!), or if you're more comfortable in jeans that's fine too.

Currently we have two talks planned, if you want to get involved and speak about women in engineering, science and technology, please do get in touch.

The talks:
Gemma Cameron - How to get young people interested in Geekery!

Rachael Hoyle - winner of the IET's Dyson Young Woman Apprentice of Year Award. Rachael will be delivering an extremely interesting talk around the stigma of women in engineering. This will cover how ethics and equality are the dominant factors in employment, and whether this is damaging the industry, rather than encouraging diversity.

Hope to see lots of you there!
