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.

 

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

Career development: WIE offers professional development workshops specifically designed for women

engineering students. Topics include: creating a two-minute pitch, networking strategies, and transitions to the

workforce.

 

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.
