What is Young WISE and what do we do?

Young Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) is a student-run club at UBC. Our mission is to support and empower young women transitioning from high school to their undergraduate education to a successful career in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). We have a tutor mentoring program where we provide one-on-one academic support and mentorship with young girls who are passionate in challenging STEM subjects.

We are committed to improving our community and, in the process, strengthening youth leadership skills through hands-on stewardship projects. We work alongside non-profit, public and private organizations such as Rick Hansen Foundation and Neil Squire Society to create events like Innovation Challenge, in which undergraduate students take part of an interactive evening of talks from leading experts in entrepreneurship, health sciences research, and biomedical engineering, and finally, create and present a solution to an access challenge question for people with disabilities.

Hi everyone! UBC’s Young Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) is having its inaugural Networking and Women’s Empowerment Night on June 3rd in Surrey, British Columbia to empower high school young females in our local communities. We would like to give the young females the opportunity to meet with professional women with successful careers in STEM and other similar fields.

We are currently looking for females in STEM and other similar fields to accompany us and share their stories with the youth in our community. If you are interested in participating in this event, please send us a message! We are also looking for speakers to give a short presentation highlighting their journey leading up to their current career position. We look forward to hearing from you!
