Top women listed
A list of 100 women engineers from history has
been released as part of a project to celebrate the
achievements of women in engineering over the
past 100 years, and to mark the centenary of the
Women’s Engineering Society in 2019.
The organisation was formed to inspire,
support and encourage women to become
engineers, technicians, electricians, motor
mechanics, construction workers, pilots, machine
shop operatives, draughtswomen, and others.
The list names 100 most in uential women
Krawczyk
engineers in Britain, or who were British, that lived at
some time between 1919 and 2019, but who are no longer
alive.
The list includes founders of the Women’s Engineering Society
such as Rachel Parsons and Laura Annie Willson MBE, and its rst
secretary, Caroline Haslett DBE, as well as presidents of the society,
including the pilot and engineer Amy Johnson
(pictured) and the founder of the Electrical
Association for Women, Mabel Matthews.
It includes well-known women from
the Second World War period such as Tilly
Shilling, who developed the valve that
prevented Merlin engines stalling when
diving; and Hilda Lyon, who developed the
‘Lyon Shape’ used for the airship R101,
according to WES.
The list was compiled by judges Dawn
Bon eld, Nina Baker, Henrietta Heald, Anne Locker,
Gordon Masterton and Will Whittow, following public
nominations submitted online.
The list coincides with publication of a book charting the early
years of the Women’s Engineering Society, Magni cent Women and
their Revolutionary Machines by Henrietta Heald.
