Within the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics there has been a historic and consistent commitment to promote and encourage women into the industry.
We are striving to eliminate the gender imbalance that exists nationally in the engineering sector.
"The final year project was an incredible learning process and an experience that tightened the relationship and friendship with all my course mates."
"It was great experience studying and working here. The University shaped me into being a better engineer."
"The University of Plymouth is the best in the UK for robotics, as well as being an IET accredited degree and having the extra MEng year option."
"During the European Future Technologies Conference and Exhibition in Budapest, Hungary, I presented a joint work between Plymouth and the University of Bielefeld in Germany that was awarded with the 2nd Prize Best Poster."
"Completing the placement year and seeing the different areas where students studying similar degrees worked within the same company has given me more of an idea of which areas I would like to explore further and potentially specialise in."
Emily-Jane Rolley-Parnell's research project experience studying BEng (Hons) Robotics has fuelled a passion to be a role model in the robotic industry.
I never thought that I would graduate with a job already secured (before I had even started my third year), and I can only thank the support of the University staff for that!
