Hosted by the EUS Equity Committee, the Faculty of Engineering and the Mary Brown Fund, the Fall Forum aims to bring up topics of diversity in Engineering at McGill. This event is a great way to meet people interested in making Engineering at McGill more inclusive and connect with different groups on campus, faculty or industry leaders. The Forum allows attendees to discuss issues and work towards solutions to implement. It usually consists of a talk by a speaker and it is followed by discussion from a panel of leaders in the McGill community. Attendees are able to share their experiences, discuss with speakers common problems and potential mechanisms and strategies to deal with them, and form allyships across the spectrum of the engineering community based on improved understanding. During the event, refreshments and food are be provided and the admission is free.

All members of the McGill engineering community are invited to attend this forum. One of the forum's purpose is to bridge the gap between students, staff and professors, in terms of perceptions and conceptions of diversity and inclusivity.

This forum, included in a series of events, will aim at building long-term support networks within the engineering community, through sharing of perspectives and experiences; developing a shared understanding of the challenges and benefits of creating a truly diverse and inclusive community in Engineering; maintaining an atmosphere of common engagement and commitment towards this community.
