Society of Women Engineers
New England Shoreline Section
The New England Shoreline Section of the Society of Women Engineers is a not-for-profit educational and service organization. SWE-NESS members are pioneers, advocates and mentors who support the professional journey and are impacting the future of engineering and technology.
SWE-NESS members live or work in Rhode Island and southeastern Connecticut and we have four collegiate sections: Brown University, Roger Williams University, the Coast Guard Academy and University of Rhode Island.
We are an active group, with regular meetings and ongoing educational programs for youth of all ages. You don’t have to be an engineer or a woman to be active in SWE.

Volunteer Opportunities
SWE NESS has partnered with SWE Hartford to judge the Connecticut Invention Convention (CIC). The SWE Hartford section received the list of entries which contains 303 students from kindergarten to 12th grade! The judging is completely virtual. The students submitted videos that we watch and judge. Last year, each volunteer received some videos to watch and rank their top 3-5 students. Judging needs to be completed by May 1st. If you are interested and able to watch some invention videos on your own time in the next couple of weeks, please contact Chloe Tinius, chloe@tinius.us.
If you are interested in running for an office with SWE-NESS, reach out to new_englandshoreline@swe.org. The elected positions are President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary.
