Episode 4: technology, equality and careers

The career information podcast by Edinburgh Napier University

Episode notes

This episode focuses on social justice. This means exploring the equality, diversity and inclusion issues that arise in the space where information technologies intersect with careers. Maria Cecil shares some of the learning from her PhD project looking at gender issues in digital technology careers. What does it mean for women to enter STEM careers?

Taking a very different angle on inclusion, Elysha Ramage in her PhD project is exploring the role of technology for those who are choosing alternatives to higher education. How did career information, and experiences of online study during the pandemic, shape these choices?
