Women in Engineering(WIE) Organized Session

When: Wednesday January 27th, 2021, 11:00 - 13:00

Session: 3E2

How: This session can be accessed by the same way of the other technical sessions.

Registration is necessary for attending this session. All registered attendees are welcome.

This is one of the technical sessions. This session is constituted with four talks and a panel discussion. After this session, "WIE Get-Together Session" is programed for people who would like to chat with speakers, WIE committees and the other attendees.

The ISAP2020WIE Chair has named this session "Leading Technologies over Diversity" with the hope that understanding each other over diversity is the most important thing not only for leading technologies but also world peace. 

In this session, the man speaker will talk about the partnership with his spouse as a research collaborator. Three women speakers will talk about how they make balance between their private and professional life for encouraging young people.

After these talks, the panel discussion will be opened. All speakers will be panels. You can ask anything about technical things and your questions to panels freely. DO NOT hesitate and feel free to join the panel discussion! You may get good opinions and advice for enhancing and making worth your professional and personal life.

Please see below the background information of the speakers and panelists.
