About WECE:
In the fall of 2006, the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department at the University of Maryland launched a departmental program for female graduate and undergraduate students in ECE called the Women in Electrical and Computer Engineering (WECE) program. The primary purpose of this program is to help provide the best educational experience possible for our female students by fostering a sense of community in the department and to provide opportunities, resources, services, and events of interest to current ECE students.
The WECE program is designed to be complementary to existing programs at Maryland such as the Women in Engineering (WIE) program and Society for Women Engineers (SWE). Membership in the program is free and there will be a number of opportunities for interested students to sign up, as well as WECE-sponsored events for students to attend.
Students participating in WECE will benefit from peer mentoring, career information, and exposure to industry role models, as well as extracurricular activities and social events throughout the year.
Interested students can e-mail Prof. Kris Rosfjord at rosfjord@umd.edu or Dr. Judith Bell at bellj@umd.edu to request more information about the WECE program, or sign up to join WECE using the form below.
Big Sister/Little Sister Program
The WECE Big Sister/Little Sister program partners first year female ECE graduate students (little sisters) with "greater than first year" female ECE students (big sister). Big sisters help answer any questions a little sister might have and serve as friendly, familiar faces for new students in the department. For more information, contact Prof. Kris Rosfjord.
