Webinars

During the Women in Engineering Webinars, panelists, including select academic advisors from the Faculty of Engineering, university admissions advisors, professors, engineering alumni, industry representatives and current female engineering students make presentations about issues related to the admission/application process, as well as support and professional development of female students in the Faculty, covering experiences both inside and outside the classroom. The Women in Engineering Spring Webinar (March/April) follows a similar format to the Fall webinar, but also allows prospective students to receive answers to questions that could help finalize their decision to attend Â鶹AV Engineering.Ìý
