Great day at Dundee's @MSIPDundee Tech Conference yesterday! Exciting to see what our peers in Engineering, Innovation and Technology have been working on! Our Engineering Associate got to see developments in Formula Student, Renewable Tech & Scottish Circular Econ developments!
Happy International Women's Day! Here's a sneak peek into our Research, with our STEM Equity Case Study! ‘Applications by women into Eng/Tech apprenticeships are <5% that of men in Scotland, how do we change this? Is it disengagement, image problems or a lack of role models…’
