creating pathways for women in construction
As Australia's construction and infrastructure sectors continue to grow, there has never been a better time for girls to explore the diverse and rewarding opportunities available across the industry.
Tomorrow's Women in Construction (TWIC) and Western’s Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Science are working together to support the next generation of women discover their options in careers across construction, engineering, infrastructure, architecture, project management, and the broader built environment.
Through this partnership, TWIC and Western are helping young women discover their passion, study pathways, connect with industry professionals, and build the skills needed for future careers shaping our cities and their future. The aim is to ensure girls are supported every step of the way – form their first glance into the industry, to graduation and into their first job.

From designing sustainable communities and managing major infrastructure projects to engineering innovative solutions and leading project teams, women are making a significant impact across the sector..
