日期：2023年10月17日，星期二，一位受人尊敬的大学教授被评为2023年stem（科学、技术、工程和数学）杰出女性奖的联合得主。 普里菲斯戈尔-雷克瑟姆/雷克瑟姆大学航空航天技术教授艾莉森·麦克米兰被提名为西米德兰地区的获奖者。 stem杰出女性奖是第七届年度女性奖的一部分，该奖项不仅旨在表彰女性的杰出成就，还旨在提高人们的认识，表彰和表彰所有文化、社区、种族和信仰的女性在各个领域做出的辛勤工作和宝贵贡献。 麦克米兰教授是由一位名叫戴维·海斯的前同事提名的。在他们合作的时候，海斯是劳斯莱斯集团出口控制专家的负责人。 麦克米兰教授在获奖后说：“我非常荣幸被宣布为西米德兰兹杰出stem女性联合获奖者之一。 “我从没想过会成为赢家。 对我来说，最重要的事情过去是，现在仍然是，首先被提名，因为被提名意味着被认可。 “有太多伟大的女性，她们的工作、行动和成就都没有得到充分的认可，值得肯定。 如果你读到这篇文章，想到了你认识的人，请提名他们参加明年的活动或其他奖项。 “我也要借此机会感谢大卫·海耶斯对我的提名，同时感谢并认可 sandra pollock obe， 谁是煽动的冠军 女性奖项，以及所有评委、组织者和所有参与其中的人。 “作为提名过程的一部分，被提名者被要求写一份关于他们成就的声明。 就在今年，麦克米兰教授因发表了一篇关于新冠肺炎大流行模型的论文而获得表彰，该论文被列为世界上最古老的科学院皇家学会引用率最高的前五名。 最近，麦克米兰教授一直在领导一个名为“拯救我们的星球”（部队）的项目，该项目正在研究有关气候变化的叙述和缓解气候变化的行动。 这与过渡工程的新学科相一致，即开发、规划和设计基础设施，使整个人口能够舒适地过渡到低碳可持续的生活方式。 麦克米兰教授说：“人们需要一个故事来告诉他们进展是什么样子的，并参与讨论，这样他们就可以无所畏惧地计划进展。”。 我所说的“进步”是指能源转型的进步，这最终意味着彻底削减私家车、大规模公共交通基础设施开发、区域供暖基础设施——一个尽可能在家里或步行即可到达的工作场所完成更多工作的世界。 “最终，这样的制度应该为一个更加公平的社会提供基础，但最初的驱动力是减少能源使用，减少资源浪费。 工程和其他stem工作是创建实现这一愿景所需的系统，但必须公平地与社会中的所有人接触，以理解和明确需求。 雷克瑟姆大学艺术、科学与技术学院临时院长stewart eyres博士补充道：“我很高兴祝贺麦克米兰教授被宣布为2023年西米德兰兹stem杰出女性奖的联合得主。 “这一认可反映了麦克米兰教授在过渡工程领域的杰出贡献和新颖思维，并增强了艾莉森在大学内外以及对我们学生的影响。 看到一位女性在这一领域发挥主导作用，表明了多样化的观点和贡献者的必要性，以使我们向可持续未来的过渡成为现实。 ”。date: tuesday 17th october, 2023 an esteemed university professor has been named joint winner of the women’s awards outstanding woman in stem (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) award 2023.alison mcmillan, professor of aerospace technology at prifysgol wrecsam/wrexham university, was named winner for the west midlands region. the outstanding woman in stem award formed part of the seventh annual women’s awards, which aim to not only celebrate the outstanding achievements of women but also to raise awareness, recognise and honour the hard work and valuable contribution women of all cultures, communities, races, and beliefs, in all sectors make. professor mcmillan was nominated by a former colleague called david hayes, who at the time that they worked together, mr hayes was head of export control expert for rolls-royce group. speaking after winning the award, professor mcmillan said: “i feel extremely honoured to have been announced as one of the joint winners of outstanding woman in stem in the west midlands.“i never expected to be a winner. the most important thing for me was, and still is, to have been nominated in the first place because being nominated means being acknowledged.“there are far too many great women out there whose work, actions and achievements are under-recognised and who deserve acknowledgement. if you are reading this and thinking of someone you know, please nominate them for next years event, or for another award.“i’d like to also take this opportunity to thank david hayes for my nomination, as well as thank and acknowledge the terrific role of sandra pollock obe, who is the champion who instigated the woman’s awards, and also to all the judges, organisers and everyone who played a part in its running.” as part of the nomination process, nominees were asked to write a statement of their achievements. just this year, professor mcmillan was recognised for contributing to a paper relating to covid-19 pandemic modelling which was ranked in the top five most highly cited by the royal society – the world’s oldest scientific academy. recently, professor mcmillan has been leading a project called ‘the relief of our planet’ (troop), which is examining narratives around climate change and actions to mitigate it. this is aligned to the new discipline of transition engineering – developing, planning and designing infrastructure to enable the transition of a whole population to move comfortably to a lower carbon sustainable mode of living. “people need a narrative telling them what progress looks like, and to be involved in discussions, so that they can plan without fear, for what that progress looks like for them,” professor mcmillan said. “by "progress" i mean progress towards energy transition, which would ultimately mean radical curtailment of private cars, massive public transport infrastructure development, district heating infrastructure – a world of work where much more is done from home, where possible, or a workspace within walking distance. “eventually, such a system should provide the basis for a more equitable society, but initially the driver is to reduce energy usage and be much less wasteful of resources. the engineering – and other stem – work is to create the systems that will be needed to bring such a vision into fruition, but must engage equitably with all in society to understand and specify the needs.” dr stewart eyres, interim dean of the faculty of arts, science and technology at wrexham university, added: “i’m delighted to congratulate professor mcmillan on being announced as the joint winner of the west midlands outstanding woman in stem award 2023. “this recognition reflects professor mcmillan’s exceptional contributions and novel thinking in the field of transition engineering, and enhances alison’s impact within the university and beyond, as well as for our students. seeing a woman lead thinking in this area demonstrates the necessity of a diversity of views and contributors to make our transition to a sustainable future a reality.” .本文来源： 大学教授被评为STEM杰出女性奖联合得主；
