Our innovative programs and publications have earned national recognition, while our growth and the achievements of our dynamic leaders have attracted attention on a global scale.
The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) is a not-for-profit educational and service organization that empowers women to succeed and advance in the field of engineering, and to be recognized for their life-changing contributions as engineers and leaders. Founded in 1950, SWE is the driving force that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career for women through an exciting array of training and development programs, networking opportunities, scholarships, outreach and advocacy activities, and much more.
SWE-San Diego is led by an elected, volunteer Executive Council dedicated to ensuring the Section’s financial health and advancing its professional impact.

We are fortunate to have such talented and committed individuals generously contribute their time, energy, and expertise in support of SWE’s mission.
