Diverse roles for female students at UTCN

To celebrate International Women’s Day we asked our marketing and outreach coordinator Ms Lerpiniere (right) to talk about how we help women and girls find careers in the construction industry

At UTCN, we foster collaboration with employers to facilitate the entry of young women into the construction industry through various initiatives.

UTCN has established partnerships with leading employers within the STEM industry, who provide our female students with practical experience and exposure to the construction industry.

We organise regular careers and networking events to connect female students with potential employers within STEM industries, allowing them to explore diverse roles within the construction sector.

Employers can get involved with invaluable mentorship programmes, offering support to young women as they navigate their careers through a traditionally male-dominated field.

Collaboration between employers and education providers like UTCN can break down barriers, promote inclusivity, and empower young women to pursue successful careers in construction.

Are you a business who would like to facilitate the entry of young women into a traditionally male-dominated field? We'd love to hear from you! Please contact our Employer Engagement Team for information and support
