Internation Women In Engineering Day

In honour of International Women in Engineering Day, we are proud to present this special WISE Subcommittee webinar, celebrating the achievements and inspiring journeys of women in simulation engineering.

Overview

Agnes will talk about her journey from being an engineering intern to becoming a Technical Fellow at Boeing. She’ll discuss how her success is based on the combination of technical excellence, hard work, being pro-active, and “luck”. She will provide some examples of the types of problems she has worked on and her engagement with organizations outside Boeing.

Agnes will also address the career opportunities at Boeing for engineers who would like to follow a technical career track. If time permits, she might share some thoughts about combining a career with family life.
