Women in Engineering

The M&M (Mentors & Mentees) Program is a peer-mentoring program for undergraduate female engineering students, where Freshmen are matched with Juniors, and Sophomores with Seniors within the same major.  M&M is a unique opportunity to build friendships with other students from across campus as well as for underclassman to find an upperclassman who can offer support and guidance so they’re not facing the challenges of succeeding at Tech alone.

This year we are excited to announce a new event to kick-off the M&M Program called Spin Matching!  Instead of WIE matching mentors & mentees, we want you to help us.  At this fun and highly interactive event which will be held on Tuesday, October 23rd from 5:30-7:00 p.m. mentees will have the chance to meet several potential mentors and then let WIE know their mentor preferences.  After you have been matched, in addition to encouraging mentoring pairs to meet at times and venues of their choice, WIE plans monthly lunches with guest speakers to give M&M participants the chance to talk about various topics including resumes, goal-setting, leadership, study skills, time management and much more!
