SWE National Statement
The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) is a not-for-profit educational and service organization that empowers women to succeed and advance in the field of engineering, and to be recognized for their life-changing contributions as engineers and leaders. Founded in 1950, SWE is the driving force that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career for women through an exciting array of training and development programs, networking opportunities, scholarships, outreach and advocacy activities, and much more.

Aspire
SWE membership provides the vehicle for you to give back to the community through outreach programs that encourage young girls to find and follow their dreams as future engineers. SWE's K-12 initiatives motivate students to believe in their math and science skills, and expose engineering as a meaningful and rewarding career choice for women.
Advance
The environment you face everyday is full of obstacles to your advancement isolation, lack of role models and limited access to informal networks. SWE provides the programs and communities that address issues ranging from leadership training to management tools to networking events to work/life balance workshops. Whether you are just entering the workforce or a seasoned professional, SWE has programs targeted for each stage of your career path.
Achieve
Complementing your professional advancement, SWE celebrates those who achieve personal and professional milestones. SWE's Awards Program recognizes professional members who have contributed significantly to the advancement of women in the engineering profession. SWE members celebrate the rich history and heritage of women in engineering and technology, and honor today's leaders and innovators.
Benefits of SWE Membership
The benefits of SWE membership come in many forms—from the empowerment of finding the right mentor to the satisfaction of seeing the look on the face of a 12-year-old girl successfully completing a science project and experiencing the thrill of applied engineering and creativity for the first time!
