  • In late November, the Faculty of Engineering and Design - Carleton University's Women in Engineering & IT Program held its Career and Networking Fair for Women in STEM. Hydro Ottawa is a proud supporter of this program and met with students at the fair about potential career paths and upcoming opportunities for students and new graduates. It was a pleasure to meet with so many eager young women and see the impact of programs that promote gender diversity in fields where women are underrepresented.
