Each quarter, our section of SWE holds 1 major event, 1-2 general meetings, a few
small social events, and outreach events. Just a few of these events are outlined
below.
Major Events
Our major events consist of the following (click on title for more information):
Industry Day
Technical career fair
Career Day For Girls
Outreach event for middle and high school girls
Spring Banquet
A banquet honoring current SWE Members
General Meetings
Our general meetings are a time when our SWE members can gather for updates on SWE events,
participate in some sort of programming, grab some free food, buy SWE t-shirts, and just
hang out.
Social Events
For social events, we often try to organize lunches at the North Campus Einstein's
Bagels. Sometimes we also have movie outings and are planning to hold more social events this upcoming
fall when we return to school.
Outreach Events
We participate in various outreach events throughout the year. One of these events was helping Girl Scouts earn
their engineering, science, and math badges.
We are also currently working on developing a summer program. NU SWE's first annual Summer Program for Girls will
tentatively be June 16-18, 2008. The program will host 30 8th and 9th graders and will be non-residential. We'll be
looking for undergrad counselors to assist the participants.
