Dr. Fehmida has been involved in promoting Women in STEM initiatives for many years and is also the University’s Ambassador at the Emirates Digital Association for Women (EDAW).
In this 3rd edition of the Global Women in STEM Conference and Awards, some of the most accomplished women in STEM are gathering to deliberate and discuss how women are participating in STEM fields. The Conference was organized by the Meera Kaul Foundation (MKF), and our university has proudly partnered with the MKF on many occasions to promote such initiatives.
Many students from the DCEI volunteered at the conference to help organize and coordinate the conference activities. The organizers and the delegates were impressed with our students’ professionalism and dedication.
