ESIEE Paris committed to the feminisation of engineering professions

This partnership with the Women in Industry awards highlights ESIEE Paris’ commitment to promoting gender diversity in engineering studies and fighting gender stereotypes. The event shows young women that they are just as able to choose a career path in engineering, and raises their awareness of the engineering professions.

The school is organising a number of initiatives throughout the year that are aimed at attracting women to the engineering profession. ESIEE Paris is also a member of Elles Bougent, an association that aims to increase the number of women in the industrial and technological sectors.
