Class of 2008,
Welcome to the Illinois Institute of Technology! The IIT chapter
of SWE congratulates you on all your accomplishments so far.
When you come in the fall, you will be joining a dynamic group of
women. SWE strives to be the number one resource for all women at IIT.
Our national association is the largest non-profit organization that
represents both student and professional women in engineering and
technical fields.
SWE has many initiatives on campus. This year, SWE sponsored numerous
events such as Women's Jeopardy, research presentations, ice cream socials,
and company tours. Next year, we are planning to do much more! Come meet
other women and help the Girl's Night Out, or challenge some guys to a
friendly game of Women's Jeopardy. Meet and learn from amazing women in the
academic and professional worlds. This organization will let you form
connections to people, companies, and institutions which will give you more
opportunities and open doors in your career.
You've come to IIT in exciting times. I hope that you will come to our events
and become involved in SWE! If you want to be a step ahead, I urge you to go
to our National Website
and become a member. A SWE membership is a powerful thing, and
you'll get many benefits from national membership.
We can't wait to have you on campus!
Jennifer Chen
