SWE in the City 2020
Every year our UIC SWE chapter hosts "SWE in the CIty", which is an opportunity to network with engineering students from other SWE chapters, across the Chicagoland area and learn about how we can thrive in the workplace!
Mommy, Me, and SWE
Each semester, middle-school girls spend a morning with the UIC Society of Women Engineers and learn about engineering through fun, hands-on activities!
Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day 2020
UIC Women in Engineering Program and SWE come together during Engineering Week to host an event for high school students, known as "Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day". The day is filled with hands-on activities, tours of college engineering labs, and sharing what it means to be a female engineer!
