Mentoring
Activities
Each semester SWE’s Mentoring officers create teams of students consisting of a mixture of underclassmen and upperclassmen. This gives younger students the opportunity to connect with other SWE members in their major and to receive advice about classes, research opportunities, major specific clubs, and more. Events like Day on Campus, study breaks and the Madison night market are all examples of what mentoring in SWE looks like!

Hello! We are the mentoring co-chairs for this school year and would love to connect with you and pair you with a group of like minded individuals in a mentoring family or to a 1:1 mentoring program. If you are interested in becoming involved with either of these opportunities or becoming involved in the section feel free to reach out to us!
New Member Committee
Activities
Whether it’s trivia night or an ice cream social, the New Member Committee aims to create a welcoming environment within SWE and provide the opportunity for members to socialize through monthly events throughout the semester! Examples of New Member Committee events are going to the Chazen Art Musuem, Speed Friending, and the Engineering Expo!
Officer
Hello! I’m very excited to meet new members at all the activities in the upcoming semesters! I want to create a fun, inviting environment for current/new members. Come to any event to meet some new friends! Feel free to contact me at mtstoltz@wisc.edu if you would like to help with the Engineering Expo, any other activity, or if you have any questions 🙂 Thank you!
Professional Development
Activities
Diversity is the key to further enriching society. In SWE, we work to nurture a safe community for underrepresented individuals to build their confidence and professional skills. Professional development events like Evening With Industry (EWI), presentations from company representatives, and career fair preparation nights will all aide you in your career search.
