Welcome to the new University of Akron SWE Website!

Welcome to the new website for the University of Akron Society of Women Engineers Section! We have had many issues in the past with developing HTML content for the University to put on our old website, so we have moved to using a WordPress site, with the goal of making information easier for you to access and more up-to-date!

If you have any suggestions for our new site, please email your comments to me, and Iwill encorporate your suggestions into the site as soon as possible!

Thanks,
