Speaker Series
One of the special things the WISE Village provides is a monthly Speaker Series that highlights dynamic women with interesting and successful careers in science and engineering fields. The women come to campus to speak about their experiences and share success strategies. The goal of the Speaker Series is to expose students to great female role models and to get students thinking about networking and issues and decisions that will affect them throughout their careers. As with other WISE events, the Speaker Series is open to all students.
