ATTENDEES Attendees of WE Local will experience new professional development and networking opportunities that embrace the local qualities of what Pittsburgh has to offer engineers. View the tentative agenda!

SPONSORS WE Local offers an unique experience for sponsors where they can network, recruit and even, dine with attendees. Smaller than SWE's annual conference, WE Local is the perfect opportunity to learn about the organization and our members.

PARENTS/EDUCATORS Future engineers need the support and encouragement from educators and parents to see the endless possibilities of an engineering career. A special feature of WE Local is the Outreach, Design Lab Pittsburgh (http://welocal.swe.org/pittsburgh/outreach/), component that drives this vision to local middle and high school students.
