The Asian Deans’ Forum is composed of representatives from engineering schools of seven leading Asian universities: Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, National Taiwan University, National University of Singapore, Seoul National University, Tsinghua University, University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney and The University of Tokyo. Member universities meet periodically to share experiences and approaches to the development of engineering knowledge with the aim of leading in the field for the 21st century.  

Asian Deans’ Forum 2023 – The Rising Stars Women in Engineering Workshop will be held at The University of Tokyo, Japan, from Monday, November 20 to Wednesday, November 22.

Organized by Asia’s top engineering schools, this aims to bring together young women professionals in engineering disciplines from around the world, including scholars, researchers and engineers interested in exploring and advancing careers in academia, for scientific and career-oriented discussions relevant to the development of women academic leaders in Asia. 

Insightful plenary and keynote lectures, panel discussions and mentoring sessions will offer participants a glimpse into an academic career in top Asian universities.
