The Rochester section of SWE is currently inactive.

The Rochester Section of SWE was chartered on April 5, 1982 by 44 members. The section provides significant networking and professional development opportunities to help women achieve their full potential as engineers and leaders. We also encourage and inspire girls and young women to explore careers in science, math, engineering, and technology through outreach events, guest speakers and scholarship opportunities. SWE Rochester is affiliated with two Collegiate Sections, Rochester Institute of Technology, University of Rochester, and AffiliateMonroe Community College.

The mission of the Rochester Section of SWE is to be the premier resource in the Rochester area for women seeking information about engineering and related careers.
