Alumni
"I never really felt at home or that there was a space for me, but then I moved to Western Sydney University and everything just kind of fell into place.
“Ignore any stigma that say you can’t have a career in the field and know that there are other women out there willing to support you. Women are strong, skilled, smart and they deserve to be seen and heard.
“I think it’s important for women to be represented in STEM because it gives them a voice, it gives them hope and it allows them to see that there are so many opportunities and career paths you can pursue.”
