The new student space for Kim Jackson Scholars - young women from regional and rural areas in engineering at ANU - has opened.
Getting more women into engineering takes more than just financial support. Having a place to study and support each other helps.

Our goal is a diverse and thriving workforce of technology professionals, educated at Australian universities, collaborating to solve global problems.
By collaborating rather than competing, we can improve outcomes for people with disability; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders; women; LGBTIQA+; neurodivergent; from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds; from rural, regional and remote areas; and low socio-economic status.
Hosted at Australian National University, IDEATE’s partners include:
