Women In Engineering (WIE) at WWU
About
It will be the purpose of WIE at WWU to serve as exemplary mentors to all women students, especially women students of the EECE major in an effort to be thought leaders in the nation’s attempt to close the gender gap in STEM, and especially in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. WIE at WWU will also be an unofficial branch of the global entity entitled IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE). “IEEE WIE is a global network of IEEE members and volunteers dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists and inspiring girls around the world to follow their academic interests in a career in engineering and science. IEEE is the world’s largest technical professional organization dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. WIE’s mission and vision: Our goal is to facilitate the recruitment and retention of women in technical disciplines globally. We envision a vibrant community of IEEE women and men collectively using their diverse talents to innovate for the benefit of humanity.
