About WomEng Ask An Engineer Virtual Series

The WomEng Ask An Engineer Virtual Series provides girls with an opportunity to engage online with professionals in engineering and technology. In this series, three (3) sessions will be hosted across April and May 2021 with various engineering and technology professionals from South Africa, Namibia and Botswana in each session sharing their career journeys and answering burning questions from high school girls. Each session includes 4 – 5 engineering and technology professionals from various disciplines. Participants are required to attend only one (1) of the sessions. Participation in the Ask An Engineer Virtual Series will provide the opportunity for participants to join our GirlEng Community WhatsApp Group to continue the conversation and engage with other girls interested in engineering and technology.
