Conferences

Are you interested in attending the largest conference for women in engineering and technology? This year, the WE24 conference is hosted in Chicago from October 24th to 26th. Our executive board attends each year, and our section would love to sponsor general members to attend as well. You can choose to attend virtually or in-person. If you are selected to receive sponsorship from our section, we will cover your registration fees, help plan any flights / hotel / schedule, and have you join us for a group dinner in Chicago! Applications will close on September 20th.
