FOR THE LEADERSHIP OF WOMEN IN ENGINEERING
Polytechnique Montréal is 10 years ahead of Engineers Canada's goal of 30% women engineers by 2030.
In 2020, for the first time in Polytechnique’s history, the bachelor’s graduating class was 30.2% women.
To highlight the this historic milestone achievement and discuss the place of women in engineering, are: Kathy Baig (Chemical Engineering graduate; President - Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec), Mederith Alousi-Jones (Vice-President - Poly-Fi committee; Master's of Civil Engineering student; Mechanical Engineering graduate), Jean-Michel Dotonou (Poly-L ambassador; bachelor's student in Industrial Engineering), Annie Ross (Full Professor; Deputy Vice-President - Education and Research) and Michèle Thibodeau-DeGuire (Honorary President – Polytechnique Board of Directors; first woman graduate in Civil Engineering).
Representatives from engineering, education, and politics have expressed their excitement about Polytechnique Montréal reaching the historic milestone of 30.2% women graduating at the bachelor’s-level, including Danielle McCann, Minister of Higher Education and Isabelle Charest, Minister for Higher Education, Minister Responsible for the Status of Women.
