We are now accepting applications for partial ECE Department Funding Support for the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) WE24 Conference on October 24-26, 2024 in Chicago, IL: https://we24.swe.org/. WE24 is the world’s largest conference for Women Engineers and we want you to be involved!
The ECE Department will partially support up to 12 students interested in attending [paying for conference registration (approx. $200) and airfare (max $600)]. Keep in mind you would need to find additional funding or self-pay for a hotel, some meals, and ground transportation. APPLY HERE: If you are interested in applying for partial ECE sponsorship to attend the WE24 please apply here: Society of Women Engineers (SWE) 2024 Conference – Student Application for Partial ECE Dept. Funding. You will need to use your UW Net ID to log in.
Undergrad and graduate students are welcome to apply by Monday, July 15th. Students will be notified of ECE Support by Monday, July 22nd. Please do not register for WE24 on your own if awarded, we will send a departmental registration code to use from ECE. If you have applied for 2024 registration/travel funding from SWE or have submitted a proposal for the conference, please make sure to include this in your application. We will also be requesting for any graduate students interested in ECE support to volunteer at our booth to support our recruiting efforts with a member of our Graduate Advising Staff. We will only ask for a max of 2 hours of your time if you can.
