Youth Programs

Women in Engineering (WiE) supports current women-identifying engineers and students while encouraging the next generation of women to pursue careers in engineering. This program was established to address the issues that women engineers face and encourage more girls to pursue engineering and better reflect the gender ratio of the general population within the profession. 

Through Engineering Outreach at the University of Waterloo, Women in Engineering offers programs for girls and non-binary youth ranging from grades 2-11 throughout the school year. Each program is run by current women in engineering students allowing young girls to connect with mentors while having fun learning all things STEM!
