Women encouraged to pursue careers in motor engineering
Premium car manufacturer INFINITI and Renault F1® Team continue to encourage gender diversity in STEM subjects on International Women in Engineering Day 2019. Both companies are working together to inspire young female engineers to pursue careers in the automotive and motorsport industries through prominent role models.
Tommaso Volpe, Director of Global Motorsport & Performance
Projects, INFINITI commented, “Women in Engineering Day is a fantastic
initiative, and what better way for us, at INFINITI and our partners at Renault
F1® Team, to give our support than by providing female students with female role
models and showcasing the work they do to inspire other women to pursue careers
in engineering as well.”
INFINITI Academy Engineer and W Series racing
driver Sabré Cook also commented, “I wish there were more women in the
industry, and I’d strongly encourage any women to get into it and go after a
career in engineering—there is a lot to contribute, a lot to gain, and lots of
satisfaction that comes with it.”
