The IEEE Student Branch University of Western Macedonia, Kastoria, created the affinity group Women in Engineering to promote the woman in technology. In our department has recently grown up the number of women in computer science, coupled with a fairly high percentage of female teachers, we had the motivated to create it.
As a goal, it have to provide a blog with important topics for Female Engineers as well as keeping them up to date on new technologies. To increase the technological educational background for women in the Kastoria community and to promote the goals of WiE through workshops, conferences and Social Media.
As a continuous promotion of WiE will show the women of our department that they can do things as engineers and that it is not a purely male profession.
