Abstract
Carol Monaghan, MP for Glasgow North West and a former engineer, talks about her accidental entry into politics, why she’d love to see more people from STEM backgrounds in government, the important role parents play in encouraging their children into engineering careers, and what she’s looking forward to at ECOC 2023, where she’s the after dinner speaker.
