About SWE
Our Organization
We are the Stevens Institute of Technology chapter of the Society of Women Engineers.
Our organization is a chapter of the global organization, the Society of Women Engineers. We are focused on bringing together the community of women in engineering at Stevens through different programs, events, and opportunities. Through these avenues, we explore different aspects of what it means to be a woman in engineering.
Our Professional Development events connect students with companies via talks, workshops, and site visits. Our Social events focus on building the community of women in engineering at Stevens and work to connect people across majors and years. Our K-12 events reach out into our community to inspire and educate more young girls to pursue engineering. These events and more allow us to grow as women in engineering and be prepared to enter our future as well-rounded, diverse, and confident leaders of the next generation.
