About Us
We are a group of technical women and men who support and encourage women to pursue careers in engineering. We provide professional development, social, networking, mentoring, and community service opportunities for the students at CMU and sponsor several events each semester such as the STEM Career Fair, High School Day, and Middle School Day.
Our mission is to promote the image and success of women in STEM both internal and external to SWE by providing resources for personal and professional development and a community that advocates diversity and awareness.
