Website Sulzer Women in Science and Engineering (WISE)
At Sulzer, we are committed to diversity and inclusion at the workplace. As part of our measures to tackle the gender disparity in our industry, we created the Sulzer Scholarship for Women in Science and Engineering (WISE). In most countries around the world, women are still underrepresented in STEM-related (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields of study and professions. The available data indicates that for engineering, the gap is particularly wide. To help change this, we launched the Sulzer Scholarship for Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) in 2019.
The Sulzer Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Scholarship offers a great opportunity for Black female students pursuing studies in Science, Engineering, or related fields at accredited South African institutions. The scholarship aims to support the development of future leaders, promoting diversity and inclusion while fostering a more innovative and equitable future.
