Awards and Competitions!

Wednesday 28th October 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

As pioneers, innovators, leaders, and mentors, our accomplishments are diverse and our dreams have no limits. We are proud of our members’ many achievements and celebrate them through the SWE Awards Program. 

During the Region F meeting at WE09, we decided one of our goals was going to be having every section apply for at least one award. You can learn everything about the awards and competitions SWE offers on the swe website. Applying for awards is not as hard or as time consuming as you think! The website award only requires that you submit you website url, and I know that several sections in Region F have amazing websites! So do it, do it, do it!

Also, the deadlines have a tendency to sneak up on you because many of them are during the summer, so mark your calendars now, so you remember later.

We wanted to let you guys know that there’s a new option for National SWE Membership. It’s called C2C (College to Career) and basically means you pay $50 for membership in SWE for the rest of your college years, plus one year after that! It’s a great way to save money and show your commitment to SWE. For more information on this great option, click here.
