International Women’s Day at Durham 👩⚕️👩🌾👩💻👩🏭👩🔬
We’re proud to shine a spotlight on all the incredible women that make up our
staff, students and professional services.
Here are just a few stories that are inspiring us this year:
🎭 @ambikamod - Star of @Netflixuk series ‘One day’ and Durham alumna started
her journey at @stmaryscollegedurham and @thedurhamrevue. We can’t wait to see
where Ambika’s talent takes her next.
⚙️ Dr Beth Barnes - Shaping the future of engineering with her ground-breaking
research in our top-rated @duengineering department focuses on inclusive
disaster planning, ensuring safety for all. It’s no surprise that she’s recently
been named in the 2024 @npwawards – Future List.
🎶 Durham music and Theatre - Our students are marking the creative and artistic
talent of women this International Women’s Day with performances throughout
March, exploring and embracing this year’s theme of inspiring inclusion.
🔬 STEM scholarships - From providing financial support to fostering mentorship
opportunities, we’re committed to breaking down barriers and creating pathways
for women to excel in #science, #technology, #engineering, and #mathematics.
