Happy International Women's Day! In honor of today, we are going to highlight all of the amazing programs WIEP has to offer!

The Purdue Women in Engineering Program offers a TON of awesome opportunities and resources to assist female students during their time at Purdue. Learn a little bit about some of these resources below, or visit the Women in Engineering Program website for even more information!
Residential Learning Community: Live in a learning community with other future engineers – the friends you’ll do homework with, take selfies with, cram for exams with, and eat too much pizza with. Outreach K-10: I2D2 and I2R
Perform outreach to younger students by visiting their schools and teaching them what it means to be an engineer through hands-on activities!
Mentors and Mentees Program: We all need advice from time to time, and WIEP offers two ways to get it. One is Pair Mentoring, where first- and second-year women are paired-up with a junior or senior woman. If you’d rather be in a group, the Group Mentoring Program gets all levels of undergrad women together. (Free!) Tutoring: When you need a leg up in class, you can get free tutoring. Yes. Free. Every evening. What’s not to love?
Women in Engineering Seminar Class (ENGR 194): Get inspired by Purdue women engineering alums living the life. They come to campus to talk to YOU about their personal and professional lives. This is also counts as a one-credit class. Women in Engineering Senior Seminar Class (ENGR 494): Gender in the Workplace
This course engages students in the practice of professional development skills to maximize the earning potential and promotion opportunities of female engineers while studying the transition in climate and culture from academia to workforce. This also counts as a one-credit class.
Access Alum: Women alumnae who were once where you are visit campus. They want to talk to you! Give you advice. Look at your resume. Take a break from homework and hand with an alum – you might just end up with a job!

Saving the best for last, the WE Link Program is such an amazing opportunity for current students to give back to prospective students. Participating in projects, writing postcards and other forms of media outreach highlights this program's main purpose as increasing the women in engineering. I love it!
