OpenScience is delighted to announce its participation as a Diamond Sponsor of IEEE WIE Day | UFRN 2025 – “Reshaping the Future” (UFRN: Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte), to be held on July 5, 2025, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., at SEBRAE RN (Av. Lima e Silva, 76 – Lagoa Nova, Natal/RN, Brazil). This event is part of a global celebration promoted by IEEE Women in Engineering, which celebrates and strengthens the presence of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) 🚀.
A Little History:
IEEE Women in Engineering was formally established on June 29, 1997 and, since then, has supported a growing community of women in STEM and taken steps to promote change in the field. The most recent edition of WIE Day UFRN took place in 2024 and addressed the theme “Artificial Intelligence and Industry 4.0.” More than 70 participants attended talks by experts such as Dr. Thaís Ramos (Minsait) and Dr. Mônica Magalhães (LaSiC/UFRN). In 2025, we expect to welcome 150 participants.
