Women in Engineering at UAThe University of Arizona is dedicated to providing a welcoming and supportive environment for women in the College of Engineering. A wide range of programs, including student recruitment, workshops and seminars, undergraduate advising, and early academic outreach, support the College’s commitment to the academic success and retention of women in engineering at UA. For future women engineers, there are several exciting opportunities available to you at the UA during the summer and throughout the year. Experience UA engineering before you even come to college! Suite with SWEThe Society of Women Engineers invites you to an overnight program in the fall and spring (November 1-2 and February 21-22) designed to introduce high school senior girls to engineering at UA. Students will stay in a UA residence hall with a member of the Society of Women Engineers, tour the UA campus, attend classes on Monday morning, eat in the Student Union and meet college administration to learn more about the resources available to women engineering students. For more information, please visit: Suite with SWE WISE – Expanding Your HorizonsWomen in Science, Engineering, Math and Technology (WISE), a UA program designed to recruit, support and retain women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields, will be hosting its annual one-day conference for 7th and 12th grade women this spring! Expanding Your Horizons provides opportunities for middle school and high school girls to participate in creative, hands-on learning experiences with current UA students.
