“We need diversity and to have women working in this field only brings an advantage to the sciences and engineering. At Drexel Engineering, we encourage diversity in the workplace. It should be no other way” says Dr. Güçeri.

SWE hosted Dr. Güçeri and 30 other members of the college at the luncheon. Discussion ranged from professional tactics used in the work place to learning how to fit into an environment with all males. In addition, Dr. Güçeri , CoE faculty and staff shared ideas on how to improve recruitment of females into the field.
