Spring Quarter Lunch Series
sponsored by ME Women

In Spring 2011, the ME Graduate Women's Group organized their first lunch series, titled “How to Achieve Everything You Want in Life”. Small groups met over lunch five times during the quarter. Similar to E311a, speakers addressed the experiences and decisions that have been important to their success in industry, academia, and life.

Research Expo
sponsored by ME Women

From 1999 to 2002, the MEWomen's group sponsored a research expo in an effort to encourage communication between current graduate students and interested undergraduates.  Graduate students informally displayed their research in a poster style presentation.  The Expo was followed by a Happy Hour.
