Study Break: Hot Cocoa Bar!

SWE members got together to relax and socialize before the stress of finals kick in! 

Mmmm Hot Cocoa :)!

Baltimore National Conference

This year, we were able to send 8 girls to the National SWE Conference. They were able to attend workshops, exhibits, and the career fair along with networking with big companies!

Here are some of the girls with Dr Rees.

The girls were able to bond and have a lovely dinner together!

Many of the girls walked away from the National Conferences with job and internship offers!

Hey Ladies! Thank you all for coming to our great pumpkin painting and cookie decorating event! What a great way to relieve stress before those midterms. Everyone made great pumpkins and cookies as seen below :)

Girl Scout Day

UMass SWE hosted 40 local girl scouts at the UMass campus to teach them about engineering and help them design and build solar powered miniature cars. Luckily, it was beautiful day outside and we were able to race our cars outside!

What To Do After The Career Fair!

 

This month, the SWE ladies organized an event of what to do after the career fair! A representative from Career Services gave us helpful tips on follow up e-mails, preparing for interviews, phone/Skype interviewing, and what happens after interviews!
