Check-in will begin at 8:30AM in Building 3, outside Room 270 (77 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge). The day will start promptly at 9:30, please arrive early to check-in. Empowerment is our goal; dress in what makes you feel confident! Note that a light breakfast, full lunch, and snacks will be provided throughout the day.

New England GWiSE

NE GWiSE is an alliance between GWISE groups from universities across New England. We are joining together to support and celebrate women and gender minorities in STEM fields, to increase awareness of the issues we face, and create change within our community. We support ideas and actions to increase diverse gender representation in STEM departments, create fair and positive workplace environments, increase the support and mentorship students receive, and enact equitable university and federal policies. Through advocacy, diversity, outreach efforts, and networking opportunities, as well as collective actions and supporting developing GWISE groups, NE GWiSE works to advance policies and programs across New England to promote equality and improve the experience of students. All members of the graduate community are welcome to become NE GWiSE members and attend our events.
