SWENext Mentoring Pilot Program Kickoff Event

Thank you for all of the volunteers that participated in the SWENext Mentoring Pilot Kickoff Event on Saturday January 25, 2020 from 11am too 1pm.  We have many volunteers out to support the event, along with six (6) SWENexters from the local Houston area.  We had a great time engaging with the young ladies about the various kinds of engineering opportunities and fields of study.  Everyone was very attentive and asked great questions about what being an engineer really means.  Activities included speed mentoring, table discussions and an engineering panel, as well as provided lunch for the students and parents.  We received lots of good feedback from the SWENexters in attendance, about how they loved seeing women engineers and that it was empowering and helpful!


Thanks!
