The Nanyang Technological University (NTU) organised its largest single event on Friday to attract more young women to take up engineering and science.
The university showcased local and international female scientists at a public symposium held to tie-in with French scientist Marie Curie's Nov 7 birthday.
Marie Curie was the first woman awarded the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win the award in two different categories - physics in 1903 and chemistry in 1911. Her ground-breaking work led to the discovery of radioactivity.
The inaugural Women in Engineering, Science and Technology Symposium is part of NTU's ongoing efforts to increase the number of women in both fields.
