The project has two parts:
Historical female influencers
Females that worked in control engineering over the decades and left their mark, paved the way for today's female professionals and constitute important role-models for young female students. The purpose is to document their role and importance in the field of control engineering and to highlight the role of women for today’s students and professionals. We are happy to share the material that we have collected with you!
