This year we saw a host of fantastic events put on by our inspiring staff and students. Here is a wrap-up of some of the main events in 2023.

The Women in STEM Society is now live. Become a member at: Women in STEM (demontfortsu.com)

Our event for this year’s Disability History Month has been postponed until 2024. The event will see a panel come together of university staff, students and industry guests to discuss the topics of Neurodiversity in Media.

As we celebrate Black History Month we thought we’d look back today at our Black History Month Diversity in Media event that took place in 2021.

To mark Ada Lovelace Day this we were lucky to be able to interview three inspirational women from the faculty to find out more about their career journeys, role models and what advice they have for other women wanting to embark on a career in technology.

Thanks to all of you who attended our Women in STEM Networking Lunch yesterday.

It was great to discuss what students want to see from the society for 2023/24.

It was great to meet so many of our new students at the CEM Welcome Fair today and hearing your thoughts of our Women in STEM Society.

Wednesday 25^th October, 2pm to 3pm (Online)

To celebrate this year’s Black History Month theme ‘Saluting our sisters’, the Faculty of Computing, Engineering and Media will be holding an online panel discussion which will explore the experiences of black women in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics).

In Conversation with alumna Rhiannon Williams, the Co-Founder and previous Team Leader of DMU Racing, and previous DMU Racing Team Leader, Megan Yates.
