Do you want to get involved but are not sure where to start? Are you looking for somewhere to continue your hobbies in university? Wouldn’t life be easier if you had a mentor with similar interests that can answer all of the above?

The University of Waterloo has always been the best in outreach programs, especially in improving female enrollment for the faculty of Engineering. This fall 2014, we will be continuing the Women in Engineering First-Year Mentorship Program. This program pairs you with an upper year student and facilitates opportunities to meet new people and bond with your mentor.

In the past Women in Engineering has hosted events including BBQ’s, Co-op panels, keychain workshops and Yoga classes with many more planned for this term. If you have any questions about being a female in engineering or would just like to hear about experiences from other students then come on out.

Women in Engineering is not only for women either, and has a number of volunteer opportunities with Elementary and High Schools in the community.

So stop by one of our events and join our Facebook group at facebook.com/groups/wie.mentorship  or email wiementorship@engsoc.uwaterloo.ca for all the details!
