Women in Chemistry

Women in Chemistry Network

Our Vision

The Women in Chemistry Network aims to create an inclusive, supportive community for women across the Department of Chemistry, including academic staff, postdoctoral researchers, professional services staff, technical colleagues and postgraduate researchers.

Our vision is to foster a connected network where women at all career stages can build meaningful professional relationships, share experiences, and support one another's personal and professional development. We seek to create a welcoming environment in which members feel valued, heard and inspired to achieve their goals. The network provides a space to discuss common challenges, exchange ideas and celebrate successes, while promoting a strong sense of belonging within the department.

Mentoring Network

Our Mentoring Network is a cross-chemistry programme connecting female academic, postdoctoral and professional-services colleagues to share experience, explore career possibilities and build meaningful connections and strong, lasting mentoring networks.
