According to Sheryl Sandberg, “In the future there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.” IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) UK & Ireland ambassadors’ scheme is continuously striving to bring this future sooner. On this International Women’s Day, we are proud to celebrate our first anniversary. Indeed, it was a year full of events, activities and struggles to not only promote women in engineering and technology but also to create a culture of diversity & inclusion and accepting it as a norm rather than an exception. We envision a vibrant community of IEEE women and men collectively using their diverse talents to innovate for the benefit of humanity.
This video sums up our past year’s events and reflects on how we are progressing to reach our goal. Apart from our main goal of global diversity in science, technology, mathematics, computing and engineering, our events also aim to expose the audience to novel areas and aspects of engineering and computing which solves real world problems, establish a link for industrial collaborations, networking and mentorship and create connections for future research opportunities. Last year, we organised four ‘Early Career Talks’ to provide recent PhD graduates and postdoctoral researchers a platform to share their work. This on-going program is now planning to bring together the fifth episode of the series. There were also two main events for promoting a diverse industry-academia collaboration, titled ‘Challenges and Opportunities: Towards Better WIE Future’ and ‘Empowering Women in the Triple Helix Model’. All our events included variety of topics and speakers representing men and women from both academia and industry. We are grateful to the sponsors, speakers and attendees of events for making them a success!
We are keen to continue working towards a better future for humanity both in terms of technology and diversity and look forward to your participation and encouragement. We wish a happy International Women’s Day to all women and men supporting equality!
The year 2022 will mark the 25th anniversary of IEEE Women in Engineering and we are planning a full year of celebrations and key moments to reflect on the great progress and achievements made by great women in STEM within the IEEE. We also plan to celebrate the great men who consistently support women along the way. The WIE 25th anniversary Sub-committee is ready to announce the portfolio of activities which will start with concerted reflections by the past and current WIE chairs, who have led the Committee since its formation in 1997, with a special interview session this year.
This International Women’s Day 08 March, IEEE WIE 25th Anniversary subcommittee presents “A Global Marathon: Spanning the Globe with 25 Years of WIE” We dedicate this event to mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, and all women in the world who are faced with discrimination, injustice, and other socioeconomic issues.
Join Maria Alexandra Paun, Chair of IEEE Region 8 Women in Engineering.

YESIST12: AGE OF INNOVATION 2022 is an international Talent Show jointly organized by Madras IEEE Education Society Chapter in collaboration with Madras IEEE SSIT, Madras IEEE WIE and Madras IEEE YP, hosted in partnership with IEEE sections, Universities and leading technology industry companies. The challenge is conducted to recognize the best social innovation application on the theme given as per the guidelines of United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The solutions provided by the innovators hold technical and environmental importance, thereby positively affecting the neighborhood around us. The competition is held in two stages: Preliminary Competition (in the pilot level) and Final Competition. Preliminary competition is organized as satellite competitions by the pilots selected in several countries all over the world while the finals are held in a selected country. In the virtual mode both satellite as well as Final competitions will be held virtually.
The dates for the final competitions are scheduled as 10 th and 11 th of September 2022.
WHO IS A PILOT?
Any individuals/IEEE members/IEEE section/Universities/industry is eligible to participate in YESIST12. If an individual is hosting, the organization to which he/she is affiliated will be taken as the Pilot. Universities and IEEE Sections from all over the world are invited to act as Pilots for the YESIST12 Project competition.
HOW TO BECOME A PILOT?
The procedure to become a YESIST 12 pilot is substantially simpler. The call for pilots is open for registration during November – December 2021. Register and enroll by filling out the form through the link on the website and let us know your intentions to become a pilot. If an individual is hosting, the organization to which he/she is affiliated will be taken as the Pilot. We will then reach out to you to provide information on how the programme operates and clarify the duties and responsibilities of each pilot.

IEEE WIE UKI goal is to facilitate the recruitment and retention of women in technical disciplines globally. We envision a vibrant community of IEEE women and men collectively using their diverse talents to innovate for the benefit of humanity. IEEE WIE UK and Ireland through the Ambassador Scheme are calling women in engineering to participate in a technical, inspirational, and empowering session tagged “EARLY CAREER TALKS”. The previous events were very successful, they have attracted attention from both academia and industry. This event converges the novel (state-of-the-Art) research areas in Engineering besides establishing networking/collaboration links, exploring new research opportunities for developing interactions between Academia, Industry and Government fostering economic and social development.
Criteria for who should apply and how to apply:
This programme supports engineers from academia or industry who have been in an industry/postgraduate position for less than 10 years. This session welcomes speakers/presenters from any part of the world who are:
