WE Work Experience

The UQ Women in Engineering program is working closely with its industry program partners to provide women in Year 10-12 an invaluable opportunity to gain work experience in engineering organisations. You can choose to do a week long experience in the school break after Term 2, or in Week 9 of Term 4, or you could choose a shorter two-day experience in the September school holidays.

Our program partners cover the six specialisations on offer at UQ and are incredibly supportive of building the pipeline of diverse talent as future leaders in engineering. Discover your career aspirations through this unique opportunity to shadow engineers and experience the dynamic and impactful work they do every day!
