Upcoming Research:

The NSERC Chair for Women in Science and Engineering (BC/Yukon) is sponsoring a ground-breaking research project examining how conversational patterns in the workplace contribute to the health, well-being, and career satisfaction of professional engineers. Volunteers will complete a series of online surveys over the course of two working weeks. In appreciation of their time, participants will be entered into a raffle for 1 in 50 chance of winning a Kindle Fire or $150. Those who complete the final survey at the end of two weeks also receive a $10 Starbucks gift card.

To sign up for the study, follow this link:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/H9RT8HH

All professional engineers are encouraged to participate.  Please distribute this to your networks.
