Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) Endowed Scholarships

Please consider making a gift to the Women in Science and Engineering Scholarship Endowment today!

In 2007, Dr. Ann M. Muir, Suzanne B. Patenaude, Beverly Curtice, and Dr. Dana Garcia established the Women's Giving Circle. This Circle established a scholarship that has been awarded for many years, and it has now been transferred into an endowed account to keep the scholarship in perpetuity.

The Women's Giving Circle was the stimulus for creating the Women in Science and Engineering Initiative (WiSE), and their confluent efforts seek to strengthen the opportunities and support the success of women in science and engineering careers.

Contributions to build the endowment are most welcome and will allow us to grow the number of scholarships awarded to women in STEM in our college.
