Society of Women Engineers

The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) strives to help women in engineering Aspire, Advance, & Achieve throughout all stages of their careers.   The following excerpt from our national organization’s website further explains our mission:

The Society of Women Engineers is a not-for-profit educational and service organization that empowers women to succeed and advance in the field of engineering, and to be recognized for their life-changing contributions as engineers and leaders. Founded in 1950, SWE is the driving force that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career for women through an exciting array of training and development programs, networking opportunities, scholarships, outreach and advocacy activities, and much more.
