Outreach

SWE Outreach has a program in which SWE members visit local schools to talk and develop engineering activities and workshops to 4th graders (It takes only 1 hour). Our next visit will be at the Lansing STEM School, and volunteers are always welcome! Helping children understand engineering concepts is a lot of fun and a great resume buider. 

So that everyone who wants to participate has a chance of going to one of our outings this semester, we are changing the weekday to visit the School.Tentative date will be November 22nd (Friday) at 11am. We will send an email confirming the date as soo as possible.

Hope to see you there!

Any doubts shoot an email to Abbie or Anne.

Carpools will be arranged, and ASME has graciously offered to cover the costs of the movie tickets for both organizations!! (Thank you ASME!). If you are interested and/or can drive please let me know!

Ladies and Gents,

It is officially winter, and that means registration for our SWE Regional Conference is here!!! Michigan Tech will be hosting "Extracting the Elements" in Houghton, MI from Feb. 14-16, 2014. To register go to and click on 'Conference Info' near the top of the page. As your member relations chair, I keep attendance for every general SWE meeting and event. Individuals who accumulate a majority will receive a small prize at our NEXT general meeting. You have to be present in order to accept your prize. Now that the semester is coming to an end, I would like to ask, you, our general members a few questions. What changes, if any, would you like to see in SWE? What are some experiences you would like to gain from SWE? Suggestions? Please email me with your creative ideas!!! Go Green!!!
