We're committed to encouraging more girls to consider engineering as a career choice. Engineering has traditionally been seen as a male-dominated field, but we continue to challenge that idea by inspiring girls during their school studies to find out more about the wide range of engineering careers on offer, and showing them that they are not just careers for men, but THIS GIRL CAN!

Orchid is a mentorship scheme run by students for students in the NAOME dept. The Orchid program aims to help students achieve their academic goals and graduate with honours.
