On 28 February 2023 the MG and YMF LSEC co-organised the first school career event for this year at the Kensington Aldridge Academy. Four women from industry, academia and start-ups shared their chemical engineering journeys and experience as women in engineering, as well as tips on what to consider when choosing a university degree. More than 40 students attended and asked questions during the presentations and at the end of the session.
Special thanks to the speakers, Andrea Iliopoulou, Despoina Rigou, Paulina Quintanilla and Maria Kalli, as well as the school teachers, Robert Davies and Marina Mavrou.

If you are a young chemical engineer, an undergraduate, master or postgraduate chemical engineering student based in the London and South East area, please join our group to receive more information about our next events or follow us on Twitter @YMFLSE or LinkedIn.
