About this project:
The engineering world is one that has been dominated by men over centuries. The lack of representation and support for women in the field has caused many to feel like they don’t belong. Society of Women Engineers (SWE) aims to combat this by providing a space for female identifying engineering students to feel encouraged and prepared to take on the engineering industry.
We host many events throughout the year to develop professional skills and create bonds with other women in our field. SWE sends attendees to the National Women in Engineering (WE) conference which is hosted in a different major city. At the conference, our members attend workshops led by powerful women in the field and explore the job fair where there are opportunities to speak with many large companies. Our members who attend are able to gain insight into the professional engineering world that they wouldn’t be able to receive otherwise. They also are able to bring what they learn back with them and share with other members, increasing the impact of this experience.
How your support makes a difference!
Your gift can send Society of Women Engineers members to the 2025 WE conference hosted in New Orleans, Louisiana to further make engineering more inclusive at the University of Delaware. Thank you for your support!
Gifts may also be used as general support for SWE.
