The SWE Athletes Affinity Group (AG) is open to any SWE member who identifies as an athlete, empowering women to reach their full potential in both engineering careers and leadership roles. This group fosters a community where women at various stages — professionally and athletically — can thrive, aligning with SWE’s core values of mutual support and professional excellence.
SWE Athletes celebrates and supports women from diverse athletic backgrounds, creating an inclusive space for members to share experiences in athletics and engineering. Members benefit from mentorship, resources, and opportunities for professional and leadership development, specifically tailored to athleticism. Whether you’re a recreational athlete who enjoys yoga, casual weightlifting, or intramural sports, a former athlete, or someone looking to support athlete-engineers, this group welcomes you.
SWE AGs are an excellent way to connect with fellow members who share similar interests. They foster community, support professional development, and empower members, all while advancing SWE’s goals of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B).
