The exhibition explores the life of Dorothée Pullinger and the other 'girl engineers' who sought professional engineering training in Galloway during WW1. They went on to produce the Galloway car, described as 'a car made by ladies for others of their sex'. A surviving model can be seen at the Riverside Museum in Glasgow. These audacious women were pioneers in areas which are still problematic for women's participation today.

For the last seven years, the Royal Academy of Engineering has been delivering a programme to increase diversity and inclusion (D&I) across engineering. This year's annual D&I Programme event will provide a platform to launch the headlines from a survey that looked at D&I in engineering employment and show how data can be effective in driving culture change within engineering.
