uk resource centre for women in science, engineering and technology

 

What do Barbara Jones, Professor Linda Partridge, Dr Jenny Gristock, Dr Caroline Crawford, Ann Budge and Professor Lynne Frostick all have in common?

 

In 2009 they were awarded as women of outstanding achievement in science, engineering and technology (See all six portraits in Second Life, October - December 2009). Following the wonderful collection of portraits this year the UK Resource Centre for Women in Science, Engineering and Technology  (UKRC) is delighted to continue towards the 2010 exhibition.

 

The Women of Outstanding Achievement in SET Photographic Exhibition is an internationally recognised initiative celebrating talented women across science, engineering and technology.

 

Celebrating and recognising the exceptional talents of women scientists, engineers and technologists is at the heart of the work of the UKRC. As the UK increasingly competes to remain at the forefront of science and innovation it is crucial to recognise, develop and support the talents of a diverse workforce. Through celebrating the outstanding women and profiling them as role models we can continue to inspire many others to pursue successful careers in these sectors.

Celebrate with us! In 2010 UKRC will mark five years of the Women of Outstanding Achievement in SET Photographic Exhibition. Want to attend the launch event? Please register your interest here.
