If you think we’re a bunch of “girly-girls” who only talk about the latest fashion, celebrities, and school gossip,you’re wrong!
If you think we’re a unch of “man-haters” who devise ways to demean menevery chance we get, you’re wrong again! The Society of Women Engineers is an organization which was created in 1950 to help women succeed as engineers. SWE also reaches out to young females to generate interest in engineering. SWE is not solely composed of females in engineering; there are non-engineer and male members as well!
