WIE Panel for MetroAeroSpace - June 24, 2020
Sharing idea with experienced and early-stage researchers
In line with the objectives of the WIE Committment Chart "Steering girls to STEM" (https://site.ieee.org/italy-wie/steer2stem/), the purpose of the panel is to promote female models who are role models and who carry out mentoring activities towards young minds.
To this end, the panel wants to highlight how from the comparison between experienced and early stage researchers on their respective experiences it is possible to identify guidelines and prospects for growth and good practices that increase the presence of young women in the aerospace sector.
The structure of the Panel will be composed as follows: # 3 topic: Measurements in AeroSpace; TLC in AeroSpace; Radars in AeroSpace; # 3 Speaker experienced researcher (women) with # 2 young researcher / PhD student for each experienced researcher.
Each speaker, role model in the reference sector, will address one of the three selected topics, with a technical intervention on their sector; then the two early stage researchers (two for each speaker) will take the floor and will be able to briefly talk about their experience and ask questions to the speaker.
