The Women in Engineering – WIE is one of the largest international professional organizations dedicated to promoting, highlighting and supporting women’s technological and scientific presence. This participatory community is formed by women and men in front of the academic institutions, the job market and society in general. The group is aimed at academics and professionals in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Currently, there are more than 800 WIE affinity groups in 100 countries connecting over 24.000 members.
Among the opportunities offered to WIE members are:
- Networking at the local level through their affinity groups;
- Participate in international and national events for free or receiving discounts;
- Development and leadership through event promotion, active participation in decisions and planning as a board member.
