WIE Student Success Programs
Women in Engineering Student Success programming has been developed to build a community that supports and inspires women engineering students. Our progams offer opportunities to connect with peers, mentors and the WIE Student Success team. Programming topics include professional development, health and wellness and building relationships.

The WIE Connect Mentoring Program matches first year students (Mentees) with upperclassmen (Mentors) in a mentoring relationship. Mentors give first year students the opportunity to have a guide to help them through their first year, and upperclassmen the opportunity to help a new student find their way in their first year at MSU. WIE Connect also includes meetings and activities designed to build community and help participants grow personally and professionally. WIE Connect is an acadmic year program (fall and spring) with the application process taking place in the summer. |

This program provides students with support specifically targeted to sophomore student needs and focuses on building community. WIE Rise programming features speakers and activities focussed on personal and professional growth as an MSU engineering student. WIE Rise is an acadmic year program (fall and spring) with the application process taking place in the summer. |

The WIE Student Success Freshman Portal is open to all incoming students. The 2021 WIE Student Success Freshman Portal is NOW OPEN!

WIE Student Success Events
Women in Engineering Student Success events are designed to build an open and inclusive community and provide opportunities for engaging with the WIE Student Success team.

Brain Breaks are quick 'grab and go' snack breaks. They are held several times each semester in Wilson Hall and the Engineering Building. They are a great opportunity to meet other women engineering students, connect with WIE Student Success and have a free tasty treat.
Update for Fall 2021: We plan to offer Brain Breaks as soon as it is safe. A final decision on Fall 2021 Brain Breaks will be made in August 2021. |
