ANU College of Engineering & Computer Science is committed to encouraging and motivating female students to pursue tertiary studies in the engineering & computer science domain.

We offer a A$5000 scholarship for high-acheiving female undergraduate students on commencement of their degree. More information can be found here: http://cecs.anu.edu.au/future_students/undergraduate/scholarships

There are also a range of special scholarships offered for continuing female students and more information can be found here: https://cecs.anu.edu.au/current_students/scholarships

ANU College of Engineering & Computer Science encourage our female students to network with each other, as well as with their male colleagues, on a regular basis so that they build new networks and make new friends to support themselves and each other while studying (and beyond).

From time-to-time the College organises get-togethers for female students, and we particularly welcome their voluntary assistance for outreach programs to help other young women decide on a career in engineering and computer science.

The Digi-Girls Program for Women has grown out of the successes of our high school programs.  We offer this model to targeted groups of women to improve their technical skills for specific purposes in a supportive environment.

ABS figures show that women are not accessing the Internet at nearly the same rate as men. Further, that women are operating small businesses at twice the rate of men and many are juggling families and a career.  The number of women choosing a technology based career is falling. 

Due to this, programs are now targeting home-based, micro and small business women operators to advise ways that technology can help build their business.
Unlike the high school programs, Digi-Girls for Women recognized the need for short sessions which can fit in around family responsibilities.  In general, programs are half day sometimes requiring more than one session.
