MISSION STATEMENT the IEEE Pakistan Women in Engineering MISSION STATEMENT The IEEE Pakistan Women In Engineering Forum aims to integrate the Women In Engineering Affinity Groups of Pakistan and provide them a platform where they could get recognized for their contributions to IEEE and WIE. We intend to play our role in reducing the gap between the industry and students through innovative programs and projects and strengthen the female engineers of Pakistan socially, ethically and technically. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 2011 Mehvish Zahoor - Chairperson IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum I had always dreamed of providing female engineers a platform where they could show their talents &get acknowledged for their potentials & working skills. Pakistan Women In Engineering Forum turned out to be the perfect platform for me to implement my ideas and getting connected with the women in engineering members across Pakistan. Maryam Saeed -Secretary IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum – Islamabad Section I joined IEEE to connect with the smart brains around the world. It’s surprising to meet new people every day and learn about the vast fields that they have worked in. IEEE is the window to the world of science, technology and innovation. My journey with the Pakistan WIE Forum has indeed been a great learning experience for me. IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum Anum Javed - Treasurer IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum Pakistan WIE Forum provided me a chance to implement my plans regarding the Pakistan Mission to Progress Project. I expect the IEEE membership growth to accelerate world wide as IEEE continues to develop new products and services and as members continue to spread the word to their professional colleagues. Rabia Khalid - Newsletter Editor Pakistan WIE Forum IEEE is one of the best things that has happened to me so far. As a part of this organization, I feel like being connected to the entire world & now WIE provided me the platform to reach out to the entire country. It’s like an arena where you can reach out to everything of your own interest. Sana Syed- Web Administrator Pakistan WIE Forum When I became a part of this global network, IEEE, I found valuable opportunities to see my career in the right direction& a great experience to manage &organize information &events at professional levels. IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum PROJECTS by Pakistan WIE Forum Since its inception, back in 2010, IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum has been struggling hard to achieve the mission with which it was created. It has been playing its role very effectively for the promotion of Women In Engineering Affinity Groups of Pakistan in Region 10. In a very short period Pakistan WIE Forum has been working on various projects aiming membership growth, surveys regarding females in the science and technology sectors, promotion and acknowledgement of volunteering activities in Pakistan and membership retention programs. Some major projects initiated by the IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum in the span of two years are: Pakistan Mission to Progress Project Discover WIE – Membership Drive Biannual Newsletter She In Technology STAR Program PAKISTAN MISSION TO PROGRESS PROJECT Great difference lies in the rates of enrollment of boys, as compared to girls in academic institutes of Pakistan. According to UNESCO statistics, primary school enrollment for girls stands at 60 percent as compared to 84 percent for boys. The secondary school enrolment rate stands at a lower rate of 32 per cent for females and 46 per cent males. This wind of gender disparity also exists in engineering institutes of Pakistan but currently no statistics are available in this regard yet. IEEE PAKISTAN WOMEN IN ENGINEERING FORUM initiated the project named as “IEEE PAKISTAN MISSION TO PROGRESS” to provide gender equal opportunities in science & society, to provide awareness about science, engineering & technology ,to provide networking opportunities by connecting all Pakistan WIE affinity groups empowering the hidden talent. PAKISTAN MISSION TO PROGRESS Project was launched on May 19, 2011 at University of Engineering & Technology Lahore, under the leadership of Anum Javed ,Treasurer IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum. Since its initiation, a number of socio-technical events have been conducted with mind blowing success circumscribing PMP’s main agenda. The team of PMP is growing day by day covering IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum all areas of Pakistan. The exclusive features of this project were designed as: Survey of the current Gender-equality status through questionnaire. Gender-Equality promotion in co-operation with rural areas. Conduct Seminars in three different IEEE sections of Pakistan for change of mind set. Pakistan Mission to Progress Team structure follows as: Project Head: Anum Javed [Treasurer IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum, Lahore] Section Coordinators: Ayesha Ansari [Chair IEEE WIE UIT,Karachi] Javeria Habib [Secretary IEEE WIE UET,Lahore] Rumsha Younus [Chair IEEE WIE BU,Islamabad] Nafeesa Mazhar [Vice-Chair IEEE WIE GCUF,Faisalabad] Project Facilitator: Bilal M Zaki [IEEE PNEC Karachi Section] Volunteers: Islamabad Section Hammad Shafqat [Chairman MAJU Student Branch, Islamabad] Anum Riaz [NUST SEECS, Islamabad] Sarwish [NUST SEECS, Islamabad] Hijab Malik [CASE, Islamabad] Karachi Section Sara Rehman Memon [Dept of Electrical Engineering,MUET, Jamshoro] Wahaba Hussain [Chair IEEE-WIE NED UET, Karachi] Maria Rana [Department of Electrical Engineering, UIT Karachi] Syeda Sundus Haider [ MAJU, Karachi] IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum Iqra Sajid [Vice-Chair WIE PNEC, Karachi] Faria Ashfaq [SZABIST, Karachi] Lahore Section Aqdus Sadiq [Department of Electrical Engineering,NFC-IEFR,Faisalabad] Ahmed Ali [Department of Electrical Engineering,COMSATS ,Lahore] Faizan Quresh [Chair IEEE LUMS,Lahore] Bilal Sheikh [Chair IEEE UMT,Lahore] Fareeha Zafar [BNU,Lahore] Azka Naseem [BNU,Lahore] Dania Faraz [BNU,Lahore] Fatima Yasmee [BNU,Lahore] Other Volunteers Sidra Bint-e-Saleem [Chair WIE IEEE NWFP-UET, Peshawar] Sadaf Riaz [BUITEMS, Baluchistan] The Pakistan Mission to Progress Project has been divided into two major phases. In phase one, we visited different schools and colleges with the aim to create awareness among the young females regarding the field of engineering. Through these efforts of the Pakistan Mission to Progress Project team, we envision a brighter and better tomorrow where the young female students are well aware of their role in their field of engineering and how they can bring about a change in the world being an engineer. Ms. Anum Javed, Pakistan Mission to Progress Project lead, has been carrying out this project very smoothly. In doing so, she has been contacting all the student branches of Pakistan, gathering their members’ data and encouraging volunteers to work for this cause. It was the efforts of the Pakistan Mission to Progress team that a social network platform could be established for all the IEEE Student Branches of Pakistan. To carry out the targeted goals, the Pakistan Mission to Progress Project team visited different schools and colleges and aspired the next generation of women in engineering. IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum Trip to Government Kindergarten School (GKS) Faisalabad WIE members of Pakistan WIE Forum, and IEEE GCUF Student Branch visited Government Kindergarten School (GKS) Faisalabad, with the aim to motivate sense of responsibility, to enhance self-reliability and to increase the technical awareness among the young unacquainted female students. This event was supervised by Ms. Mehvish Zahoor, Chairperson IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum & Consultant IEEE WIE GCUF. With the support and permission of the respected principal of Government Kindergarten School, Madam Sumera Mehtab, a complete layout of all discrete activities to be conducted, was prepared by using Gtalk plugin. This event was coordinated by Madam Sobia, a staff member of GKS. More than sixty Computer Science, Mathematics & Biology female students of 9th & 10th standards were sitting in the class having seats arranged in elevated steps. After the team introduction and greetings, Ms Saliha Kiran, Chairperson IEEE WIE GCUF, started the session’s first activity named as “Ice breaking activity”. The purpose of this activity was to make all the students familiar with one another. She asked two questions from each student i.e. their names & adjective from last alphabet of their names. It proved an interesting activity spanning thirty to thirty five minutes for all of them. This targeted not only to get familiar with the students but it was to give a keen and soft impression of us to them so that they could find us easy to talk to and be more interactive and responding towards us. After this, Ms Nafeesa Mazhar, Vice-Chair IEEE WIE GCUF conducted the career counseling session for those young emblems of the future. The major highlights of Ms Nafeesa’s session IEEE Pakistan WIE Forum were the necessary factors that are to be considered in field selection, confidence building & self- reliability. She started off by asking a few questions relating to the previous icebreaking session just to testify students’ attention. And then she continued with the most basic question of our survey, “What you want become in your future?” Students enthusiastically replied to our questions and the statistics were recorded as a result of the analysis. It became obvious that a major percentage of the students, i.e. 34% as we recorded, literally did not have the idea of what will they become on their future. Nafeesa interacted in a very ardent manner with those students who had said that they do not know what to do in future. They have set no vision of their academic era. She quoted journey of Albert Einstein’s & Isaac Newton’s failures in their student lives to their unforgettable achievements in Physics. Moreover, to emphasize the importance of teacher, she told them about Sir Winston’s Churchill story and his consistency mode of self- belief. She ended with Gazi Muhammad Abdullah example, a 15 years old child from Karachi city of Pakistan who has launched a project to eradicate pornography from Pakistan. Miss Mehvish Zahoor conducted a special training session.
