Society of Women Engineers-Greatland Section

President's Message

Welcome to SWE Greatland!

I am proud to be part of such a diverse and amazing group – SWE Greatland. We are (mostly) mothers, daughters, and sisters, working together to grow and learn and give back. But, you don’t have to be a woman or an engineer to get involved. All who support women in engineering and other technical fields are welcome. If you are new to the area or just new to SWE – welcome! Let me introduce you to the group I am fortunate to lead.

We are a busy society! Our board works hard to provide a variety of opportunities to pique the interests of our members. I encourage you to get involved in anything (and everything) that interests you; take advantage of our efforts. Check out our calendar or contact me to join our weekly mailing to learn more about what we’ve got going on.

~Melissa Branch, SWE Greatland President
