WEST (Women in Engineering Science and Technology)

Who are we?
We are a society established in 2022, because we recognised the absence of Women in STEM representation. Our motivation for creating this society stems from the need to address this gap and provide a platform for such representation. Our collective goal is to uplift and support young women within the university, as well as those who will follow, by expanding their awareness of career options, skill sets and opportunities. This endeavour aims to boost their confidence and nurture their growth towards becoming ethical and successful future leaders.  

Our Vision 
A society where women are leaders, innovators and driving forces in STEM. We envision a world where gender parity is the norm, where women’s contributions are celebrated and where the potential of every individual is fully recognised.
