The motivation for the workshop is the realization on the part of many women researchers in the speech science and technology fields that there seem to be relatively few junior women researchers in the 'pipeline' to careers in speech. This issue is addressed by providing a venue where students in speech science and technology can present their work to each other and to senior women researchers, and where senior women can describe their own research and career experience to students and mentor them. The workshop is intended for women undergraduate and masters students who are currently working in speech science and technology. It is held at Interspeech 2016, featuring panel discussions with senior female speech science and technology researchers, student poster presentations, and a mentoring session. The workshop is designed to foster interest in research in the field of speech technology in women at the undergraduate or masters level who have not yet committed to getting a PhD in speech science or technology areas but who have had some research experience in their college and universities on individual or group projects in those areas.

该研讨会的动机是认识到，在语音科学和技术领域的许多女性研究人员的一部分，似乎有相对较少的初级女性研究人员在'管道'的职业生涯在讲话。 为解决这一问题，提供了一个场所，使语音科学和技术专业的学生能够相互介绍自己的工作，并向高级女研究人员介绍自己的工作，高级女研究人员可以向学生介绍自己的研究和职业经历，并指导他们。 讲习班的对象是目前从事语音科学和技术工作的女大学生和女硕士生。 它是在Interspeech 2016年举行，具有小组讨论与高级女性语音科学和技术研究人员，学生海报展示，并指导会议。该研讨会旨在培养本科或硕士阶段女性对语音技术领域研究的兴趣，这些女性尚未致力于获得语音科学或技术领域的博士学位，但在这些领域的个人或团体项目中有一些研究经验。
