A Workplace Equality Workshop for the Control Engineering Classroom
(2022) 13th IFAC Symposium on Advances in Control Education, ACE 2022 In IFAC-PapersOnLine 55. p.97-102- Abstract
Engineering, in general, is a non-diverse profession around the globe. Women are one group of minorities in engineering. Despite the fact that control engineering is heavily based on mathematics, which has a larger number of female students, it has the same proportion of women as other engineering disciplines. To address the issue of low female participation in engineering disciplines both at university and, more importantly, in career, we have developed a workshop that can be carried out in a 90-minute-lecture in the classroom. In this paper, we first explain the context and need for such a workshop and then present the contents of the developed material as a resource for colleagues in the control engineering community.
