The 2025 Top 50 Women in Engineering Awards (WE50) celebrate the women engineers who are working together to improve lives through Engineering.
Engineering thrives on collaboration, innovation, and the power of diverse minds working together. The theme for the Top 50 Women in Engineering Awards 2025, Together We Engineer, celebrates the collective strength of engineers who unite across disciplines, challenge conventional boundaries, and drive progress through teamwork.
Whether enhancing projects through group efforts, integrating unique perspectives, or fostering connections that push engineering forward, this year’s awards recognise those who exemplify the spirit of collaboration in engineering.
Nominations close on the 25 March 2025 and the winners will be announced on International Women In Engineering Day on the 23 June 2025.
