Bath Student Women's Engineering Society (WESBath)

The University of Bath's Student Women in Engineering Society has been formed to support and empower current students within the Faculty of Engineering & Design, as well as to help encourage more young women to choose engineering at university and as a career. We are affiliated to the Women's Engineering Society (WES), a national organisation working to inspire women in engineering and allied sciences for 95 years; promoting careers in engineering; supporting companies with gender diversity; and speaking as the collective voice of women engineers.

The Society works closely with the national organisation WES (Women's Engineering Society)

We link up with female students and academics to build a community for women in engineering.

We organise activities to share experience with young women making important decisions about their future.

Every Society member will be told about University and national events for female engineers.

Our aims

Inform current and potential female students of available funding opportunities.
Increase awareness of engineering as a career by arranging events with professionals from different sectors.
Strengthen links with female alumni and engineering companies.
Promote careers in engineering to younger students in the local area by sharing knowledge and organising events.

Social Media Aims

To increase our presence on Social Media by introducing two series of posts:
- WESBathWednesday where we tweet something related to women in engineering every Wednesday.
- TuesdayTips! Where we post a tip on Instagram and Facebook every Tuesday.
We are working on a video compilation encapsulating diversity of engineers on campus through snippets of their lives outside uni (break stereotypes in favour of work hard, play hard!)
