Girl Scouts Day for High School Girls

This past weekend SWE was able to help out with Girl Scouts Day for High School Girls. SWE members helped individual girls with making their own E-textile projects. Here are some pictures with their project and some of the volunteers! :)

Next Girl Scout Day is April 26th. We will also be helping girls with projects and promote women engineering in the local community!

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!
