The Future for Women in Biomedical Engineering

Being a woman in engineering is not straightforward and may be harder for the female to work in male dominated filed. Biomedical engineering provides the great opportunity to the female as well as male students to study and work in the field of engineering. This program is included very interesting topics including core engineering modules as well as biology, biomechanics, and tissue engineering that provide variety of opportunities for the both male and female students in their future career.With continuous growth in engineering field and improvements in social awareness for gender inequality, it is evidenced that there will be a brighter future for young women engineers especially in the field of biomedical Engineering. There are many globally recognized women engineers actively working in academia or industry, and these leaders can provide a good example for young women engineers to follow. In our university we support the diversity on all engineering programs by having a multi-disciplinary teaching and research team to provide support to various programs and to our students with a hope of advancing the career development of young women engineers as well as men engineers. The growing trend for various supports and opportunities for networking and mentoring is available for young generations and they should utilize these resources to better prepare themselves within engineering field.
