How to Sign up as SWE National Member

Why Join National SWE?

Registering as a national SWE member will broaden and enrich your SWE experience! As a registered national SWE member at MIT, you gain access to members-only events including networking events, career development opportunities, social events, personal development events, and more. It is also important to join SWE as a national member because only then can you be recognized as a SWE member by MIT, SWE, and outside employers. Additionally, only registered national SWE members can run for SWE Board and Exec positions within MIT SWE. National SWE also offers additional benefits to members that can be found on the national SWE website.
To sign up as a SWE National Member, please follow the instructions here

What is SWE?
MIT SWE (Society of Women Engineers) is the largest undergraduate women’s network on campus and is part of a national nonprofit service and educational organization. Our mission is to empower women to succeed and advance in those aspirations and be recognized for their life-changing contributions and achievements as engineers and leaders. We currently have over 300 members and 50 board members who lead a variety of campus-wide, professional, outreach, and membership initiatives.

Fall Board applications will open shortly. We encourage you to stop by the SWE booth for a cupcake at the Activities Midway this Friday, September 4th from 2:30-4:30 pm and learn how to get involved.

Starting this month, SWE will be holding a monthly GBM on the first Wednesday of every month.  The upcoming GBM's are on: March 4th, April 1st, and May 6th (all 7:30-8:30pm).  Come to the GBM's to learn how to be more involved in SWE, find out about upcoming events, see your SWE friends, and eat yummy food!  This GBM will focus on outreach opportunities.  We will serve dinner at each event (for the March 4th GBM, dinner will be from Panera).
