The Women in STEM affinity network facilitates connections between women-identified alumnae who graduated from the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics (NSM) or the Ritchie School of Engineering and Computer Science (RSECS). The purpose of our network is to create a supportive, diverse, and inspiring community of alumnae through engagement, personal and professional development, and opportunities to support the next generation of Women in STEM. Members gather virtually monthly, and quarterly for in-person events. Interested in joining us? Connect with the Staff Liaison below. We can’t wait to hear from you!
