The primary role of a woman is to manage her household and raise her children, which is why Allah has made it obligatory for the man to provide for her. However, if a woman needs to work, such as in teaching or treating women, the work must be suitable for her nature and in female-specific fields, while adhering to Islamic regulations in both study and work.
Regarding the engineering profession, it is not suitable for a woman's nature, unless the work is in a suitable field like computers, while observing Islamic regulations concerning going out, adornment, dress, and the nature of the work, and without neglecting the rights of Allah, the husband, and the children.
Traveling to non-Muslim countries is not permissible except out of necessity or urgent need, due to the danger it poses to one's religion.
