Our podcast, She's an Engineer, focuses on creating a community for women in engineering. We share our personal experiences and how we have overcome challenges as women studying and working in the engineering field. Our podcast episodes range from social topics from our college and post college years, interviews with other female engineers, and technical topics we have researched. We hope you join us!
