WIE(VR) - Women in Engineering (Vancouver Region)

“Networking across workplaces, engineering fields and universities.”



Who we are

Inspired by the Building Communities Symposium first run in September 2007, we are a group of engineering women continuing the efforts to create a network of women engineers in the Vancouver region.


We work closely together with DAWEG (The Division for the Advancement of Women in Engineering and Geoscience) who is part of APEGBC and with SCWIST (Society of Canadian Women in Science and Technology), as well as with the women in engineering groups at both UBC and SFU.
