Case study
Hawah Nanyonga - Ex-Developer Operations Graduate
How did you decide you want a career in Engineering?
I tried using online courses and realised I was good at coding and enjoyed the problem-solving aspect, so I decided to explore it further as a career.
How would you encourage more women to consider Engineering as a career?
I would say if you enjoy learning something new and being creative then you should consider tech. There are a lot of resources available to get started as well as ones specifically created for women such as Coding Black Females.
