SEAS Alumna recipient of 2018 SWE Prism Award
Women at GW Engineering have been at the forefront of education, discovery, and innovation since our first female engineer in 1884.
The mission of the SEAS Center for Women in Engineering (WiE) is one of "Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging." WiE seeks to empower GW faculty, staff, students and alumni to become the best engineers they can be. We work to build confidence and knowledge about technology, expand leadership and tech skills, and fully leverage technology in support of academic and professional excellence.
