The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) inspires young women to consider a career in engineering. Within San Diego, SWE has four sections and resources for professionals, college students, K12 students and adult advocates alike:

• Professionals belong to SWE-San Diego. SWE-San Diego offers networking and professional development programs to advance women in all stages of their engineering career. SWE-San Diego also offers student resources including scholarships, volunteer speakers / role models / judges, and outreach programs including the annual SWEet (SWE Exploring Technology) for middle school students. To stay up to date on events and opportunities, sign up for our free SWE-San Diego Mailing List. Members are from all engineering backgrounds and includes everyone who supports women in engineering.    
• College students belong to one of our three college sections at the following campuses: UCSD, SDSU, USD or one of our affiliate sections at the community colleges. The college sections are a great way to find additional role models. You will also find outreach events such as the annual Envision for high school students by SWE-UCSD. 
• K-12 students can also belong (free) by signing up for the monthly SWENext newsletter through SWENext.swe.org. (Hint: adult advocates can also sign up for this free program offered by the national/international SWE).
