Outreach Programs

SWE San Diego is committed to working with students at all levels to promote awareness of engineering and to help develop underlying skills in math and science. By working together with professional engineers in these outreach programs, girls and young women get a better idea of what engineering is really all about and what they need to succeed if they choose to pursue an engineering career of their own.

For more information about our outreach programs and how you can be involved, please contact the Outreach Chairs at or .

In recognition of National Engineers Week 2008, SWE San Diego sponsored an outreach event at an elementary school in City Heights. Volunteers led 5th graders through hands-on life and physical science experiments. These experiments had already been designed; volunteers only needed to learn and teach them! The event required 1½ hours of your time during business hours on Friday, February 22, 2008. Volunteer for one session or all morning.

Please contact Andrina (858)514-9205 or Jodi (858)522-2625, if you are interested in volunteering next year or would like more information!
