Dr. Fauzia I. Abro, a graduate of Mehran University of Engineering and Technology (MUET), Jamshoro, has been named one of the Top 50 Women in Engineering in the United Kingdom by the Women’s Engineering Society (WES).
“Delighted to share that I’ve been named one of the Top 50 Women in Engineering in the UK,” Dr. Abro wrote on her LinkedIn account.
This year’s awards, announced on International Women in Engineering Day (INWED), celebrate the outstanding achievements of women across the UK who are shaping the future of engineering, science, and technology. WES has been championing women in engineering since 1919, and its work continues to be a beacon for equity, visibility, and innovation in STEM.
“This recognition is a shared achievement—thank you to everyone who has supported my journey, which began at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology, Jamshoro,” she added.
She wrote: “A special thanks to my brother, Abro Tufaill, whose support was truly like the shade of a great tree—offering me comfort and protection as I navigated life alone for the first time in a new city, Jamshoro. I wish every girl had a brother like him. 🫶 I’m also grateful to my teachers and mentors at MUET: Bhawani Shankar Chowdhry, Engr. Wali Muhammad Rahimoon, Muhammad Ali Shaikh, Iqbal Yousuf, Farzana Rauf Abro, Shafiq Mahesar, Zubaida Metlo, Nafeesa Bohra, and Nasrullah Memon.” – ER/Dr. Fauzia’s Linked account
