IEEE UK & Ireland Women in Engineering Affinity Group Awards Presentation

The primary goal of these awards is to recognise the volunteers and members of the United Kingdom and Ireland Section who volunteered their time and made a significant contribution supporting Women in Engineering.

Where possible we aim to support diversity through consideration of awards across our geographical region. Awards include a plaque and a small monetary award in addition to recognition on the IEEE WIE UK & Ireland website.
