In 2020 TINT and WISE-network (Women in Science -  Eindhoven) are joining forces again by preparing an inspiring evening marking the 5th United Nations’ International Day of Women and Girls in Science.

Join us on February 11th, 2020, between 18:00-21:30, to celebrate Women in Science in Brainport’s Eindhoven, listen to amazing speakers and meet inspiring people while enjoying a delicious dinner.

This year’s theme: Investment in Equality in Science, Technology and Innovation in the Era of Digitalization for Sustainable Development.
This event is an opportunity to honor the increasing contribution of female scientists in technical fields and also a place to share personal stories and sources of inspiration by female role models in study and career choices.

Celebration of Women in Science 2019:
TU/e student Korin wrote a blog about her experience of Celebration of Women in Science 2019:
"Wednesday evening, the 13th of February. Male, but even more female voices could be heard from The Hub. Joined together to celebrate a rather unknown event called the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
Made curious by an evening filled with a wonderful dinner, interesting and exciting speeches and a round of discussions, people came from all different places to join and celebrate one of the biggest underdogs in the work field; the woman in science.
As an actual woman in science, I wish I knew more about the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. I figured there are probably a lot of others who feel the same, which is probably why many people signed up! With an excited, yet curious mind I set out on my trip to The Hub, where a delicious meal and an interesting evening would await me." Keep reading here.
