Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) aims to promote involvement in science and engineering fields to cis and trans women as well as non-binary people by fostering enthusiasm for STEM among undergraduate students, graduate students, and professors on the Queen’s campus. WiSE provides mentorship and networking opportunities for these three groups of people at various events and workshops throughout the year. WiSE is also able to reach elementary and high school students in the Kingston community through our four outreach programs. WiSE's most recent initiative is the 'How to be WiSE' podcast. We aim to foster safe spaces for people to connect, both in-person and online, to support and encourage those in historically male-dominated fields. WiSE operates on three main pillars: inspiring the next generation of people in STEM, educating on the importance of diverse representation in these fields, and collaborating with others sharing these same goals.
Directors work directly under the President & Vice-Presidents to oversee every aspect of WiSE. They are responsible for the delivery of their individual initiative and for overseeing any Coordinators under their portfolio, if applicable. Similarly, coordinators work directly under the Directors and are responsible for the delivery of their individual initiative and for overseeing any volunteers under their portfolio.
