EmpowerHER: Inspiring Women in STEM with BAE Systems

Thinking about a career in STEM? Curious what it’s really like to work in engineering, technology or innovation after university? BAE Systems is giving you a front-row seat with EmpowerHER: Inspiring Women in STEM - a live, interactive webinar designed to show you what’s possible.

 

Why STEM Matters and Why You Should Care 

STEM careers give you the chance to shape the world - from developing technology that keeps people safe to creating smarter systems that solve real-world challenges. Yet women are still underrepresented: only 15% of engineering graduates and 16.5% of all engineers in the UK are female.

Events like EmpowerHER are helping to change that. It’s your chance to see what working in STEM really looks like, and to be inspired by women who are already making a difference.

 

What You’ll Get from the Webinar 

At EmpowerHER, you’ll hear directly from women at BAE Systems about their journeys, achievements and challenges. Through engaging talks, personal stories and expert insights, you’ll learn:

  • What day-to-day work in STEM roles actually involves
  • What graduate and undergraduate opportunities are available at BAE Systems
  • What it’s like to start your STEM career at a global company, and how you can grow, learn and progress
  • Practical tips and advice to help you on your own STEM career journey
  • A chance to ask questions in a live Q&A with women who’ve been in your shoes

 

Why You Should Attend 

This isn’t just another webinar. EmpowerHER is about connection, inspiration and opportunity. It’s a chance to see yourself in roles you might not have considered, and to understand how your skills could make an impact on meaningful, real-world projects.

BAE Systems offers world-class training, supportive mentors and a culture that values diversity and innovation. Whether your passion is engineering, digital tech, or project management, this event will show you how to start a STEM career where your ideas truly matter.
