Last year, just 23% of all engineering graduates in Ireland were women, while female engineers currently represent just 12% of the profession. Orlagh Costello, an engineer, coach, and speaker, is on a mission to change this and to encourage more women into this very male-dominated industry. Ahead of International Women in Engineering Day on June 23rd, Costello joins Kathy Sheridan in studio to talk about the many routes into the profession and the career possibilities available. She also explains how nearly everything we interact with on a day-to-day basis has been developed with the help of engineers, from the clothes we wear to the phone you’re probably listening to this podcast on. Costello also talks about the technical drawing teacher who inspired her career, what her first few years working after graduation were like, and how the engineering industry, like all industries, can benefit from having more women involved.
