WIE Affinity Group

Welcome to the Susquehanna Section WIE Affinity Group

 

The IEEE Susquehanna Section WIE Affinity Group was formed in September 2019.

The goals of our WIE Affinity Group are to:

  1. Advance the professional needs of the women in the section, especially to facilitate the recruitment and retention of women in technical disciplines.
  2. Our group works to help women in our section  attain leadership roles in IEEE governance and advance in their careers.
  3. We seek to mentor young women in junior and high schools to encourage them to pursue STEM careers.
  4. Whether you are currently a member of the IEEE WIE or thinking about becoming a member you can use the WIE IEEE TV link, which provides all the videos the WIE Affinity Group has produced over the years.  I am sure you will find interesting things about its wide-ranging activities.

Affinity group members are encouraged to submit comments and suggestions for group activities or to volunteer to make a presentation.  Please use the Contact page of the Susquehanna Section web site or contact the WIE chair directly.
