Women in Engineering

Women are a minority in the engineering fields worldwide. From the United States to Europe the number of women that are in the Physical Science and Engineering fields is far less that those of men. The few women that end up in these fields can find it challenging working in a predominantly male environment.

Following is a television interview that the World Business and Technology Television (WBT-TV), in collaboration with the Paksitan Science and Engineering Foundation (PakSEF) and the International Organization for Pakistani Women Engineers (IOPWE) conducted and aired in the Silicon Valley, San Jose, California: http://www.wbt-tv.com/videos.php?sid=20

In this TV segment WBT has profiled two highly successful women, one Ms Kamila Kraba a senior software engineer at Cisco Systems and Ms Hina Naqvi, who is holds a senior level engineering position at Adobe Systems and is the current president of IOPWE.
