The Power of Mentorship in Engineering
Mentorship is a vital tool for growth in engineering, offering guidance, support, and a sense of belonging. For underrepresented groups, such as women, ethnic minorities, and other underrepresented engineers, mentorship is especially important in overcoming biases, navigating unique challenges, and building strong professional networks. By fostering these relationships, the engineering community becomes more inclusive and innovative, inspiring diverse talent to thrive and lead the way for future generations.
The Importance of Your Name: Embracing Your Identity
Your name is a key part of your identity, reflecting personal, cultural, and historical significance. While complex names can lead to mispronunciations and frustrations, they also offer an opportunity to celebrate individuality. Embrace the uniqueness of your name, correct others when needed, and share its meaning with pride. Adding your name to personalised items like mugs, mousepads, keyrings, and pens is a fun way to honour it daily. Remember, your name tells a story—one that deserves to be spoken and celebrated confidently.

This year's slogan, "Enhanced by Engineering," highlights how engineering advancements enrich our lives and underscores the pivotal role women play in driving these innovations. INWED is more than just a celebration; it’s a call to action to inspire, support, and empower women to pursue and thrive in engineering careers.
The Importance of Failing in the Pursuit of Success: Lessons from Engineering
Failure is an inevitable part of the journey to success. In engineering, perhaps more than in any other field, failure is not just an option; it’s a necessity. The very nature of engineering—problem-solving, innovation, and improvement—demands a willingness to fail. Engineers experiment, test, and refine their ideas, often encountering numerous failures before achieving a successful solution. This iterative process of trial and error is an integral part of advancing technology and improving our world.
