This season reminds us how powerful community can be. As we look ahead to #GivingTuesday, we invite you to continue being an essential part of SWE San Diego. Your gift keeps SWE’s mission moving forward, opening doors for aspiring engineers and strengthening the support network that lifts women in STEM at every stage of their journey. Both monetary and in-kind donations are welcome. As a thank-you for your generosity, all contributors will be recognized at the SWE San Diego Annual Banquet as Friends of SWE San Diego Donors.
We’re excited to kick off 2026 with our very first SWE San Diego event, and we warmly invite professionals, collegiates, and SWENexters to join us for our Tamales Making Social.
This gathering is more than just making tamales together. It’s a chance to reconnect after the new year, build meaningful relationships, and strengthen our SWE San Diego community across all stages. Bringing together professionals, collegiate members, and SWENexters creates space for mentorship, shared learning, and authentic networking in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
Taking time to connect with one another is what makes our section strong. These moments of community help us support each other’s journeys and continue growing together as engineers and leaders.
