Abstract
In June 2019, to coincide with the centenary of the Women’s Engineering Society (WES), the Electrifying Women project was launched at the Science Museum, marking the start of an exciting journey into the history of women in engineering. The primary team for the project consisted of Principal Investigator, Graeme Gooday (Professor of the History of Science and Technology at the University of Leeds), co-investigator Elizabeth (Liz) Bruton (Curator of Technology and Engineering at the Science Museum) and Research and Engagement Assistant Emily Rees (University of Leeds). In this final blog post we reflect on what we have each learned from the project, from the various project partners and all those who attended the events and workshops that we ran. Without these participants the project would not have developed or succeeded as it did.
