About the Conference
Last year, we welcomed 160 attendees to Columbia University for the 2018 WISE Conference. We target college juniors and seniors who are interested in pursuing graduate degrees in any area of STEM. While we target college women in their junior and senior years, we welcome all undergraduate students. Undergraduate students make up 70% of our audience. We also welcome current graduate students, college graduates, and men in applied science and engineering disciplines if they are interested in attending; last year, 30% of our audience fit these demographics. Please note that the WISE Conference is not designed for high school or middle school students.
