THE WISE MISSION

The Design & Engineering Group’s WISE (Workers in Science & Engineering) initiative strives to build awareness about negative effects stemming from inherent and acquired bias and alleviate barriers to equitable participation for women and other equity-seeking groups within the engineering industry.

2023: MOVING THE NEEDLE ON REPRESENTATION

March 10: ERG Efforts: Do Your Efforts Reflect the Experiences of Your Workforce?

When it comes to gains for women, the narrative is lacking and progress is anything but equal.

  • Why affinity groups should address the most marginalized communities in the organization.
  • The problem with asking employees to do DEI work on top of their full-time workloads.

June 09: Associations Check-In: Roundtable

Representatives from major engineering associations (including Society of Women Engineers, National Society of Black Engineers and Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers) provide a state of the union.

  • What are they doing to address inequality? And how? An outcomes-centered discussion to point the way on where we go from here.

August 18: Engineering Potential: Determinants of Success

Examine attrition in STEM roles, such as engineering.

  • What are the determinants of success?
  • What are the challenges? (structural and interpersonal challenges)
  • Protecting psychological well-being, job and academic self-perceptions from challenges.

December 15: Women in Industry

Representation matters.

  • How do participation rates of women in STEM vary by field?
  • What does each of these landscapes look like?
  • Which of these fields are most attractive to women, and why?
  • Are companies becoming more receptive to prioritizing roles for women?
