Outreach Events

WIE hosts two outreach events a year in an effort to promote engineering and STEM among younger girls. During the fall, WIE hosts WIE Connect for high school girls. The high school girls have an opportunity to learn more about the various fields of engineering via a number of hands on workshops. In the spring WIE participates in the national Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day bringing middle school girls to campus to engage in a number of hands-on activities, student panels, and a chance to learn how engineering can make the world a better place. For fall 2020, WIE is partnering with our K-12 Stem Center to provide local middle school students virtual STEM activities.

WIE MENTOR Events

WIE Mentorship pairs first-year and transfer female students with a female sophomore, junior, or senior. This program aims to provide first year students with a source of support and guidance while helping to build community. WIE mentors will inspire students, serve as resources, and help increase the retention of women in engineering.

Career Series

Come out to our interview prep and resume prep sessions for help on what questions can be expected and how to answer them, as well as how to craft a resume that showcases your strengths well! We will go over commonly asked interview questions as well as how to break down and eloquently answer almost any question that is thrown at you, as well as common resume do’s and don’ts.

Industry Series

This series is for networking with top company representatives! Learn about the exciting opportunities available to you and how to get involved at Medtronic, Facebook, Embodied, Protiviti, AT&T, Abbott, and Edwards Lifesciences. These sessions will consist of recruitment information, tips and advice for various industries, and even some interactive workshops!

WIE Meets WII

Women in Engineering Meets Women In Industry is one of our largest events, during which we invite female alumni to a panel discussion and Q&A. Before and after the event, students will be able to mingle and network with panelists.
