WEP Wednesdays

Our events and programs are open to all students regardless of sex, gender, sexual orientation, race, or any other protected class. The College of Engineering is committed to building a community of belonging for all

WEP Wednesdays are fun, motivational, and educational meetings held for all engineering students once a month. All student engineers may participate in the meetings. The meetings are directed by Cheryl Knobloch, WEP’s Associate Director. A typical WEP Wednesday would include dinner for all, and afterward, there are student and guest speakers that talk about engineering topics of interest.

For example, a panel of upper-class student engineers may discuss their experiences with career fairs, interviews, co-ops, or and internships. This allows students to have their questions concerning these topics answered and at the same time, students are all able to meet and get to know each other. Sometimes there are guest speakers and seminars as well.
