Special Details About This Meeting/Audience:

The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) St. Louis Section, is proud to be hosting the 2017 Region i Conference February 24-25, 2017. We look forward to welcoming up to 250 professional and collegiate members to St. Louis from the Region i states of Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Wyoming.

The Annual Region i Conference supports diversity in STEM, offers networking opportunities, and provides personal, professional, and SWE development. The 2017 conference theme is “Engineer like a Girl”. We want to support the conversation of women in engineering, and discuss the obstacles that women face in the workplace. Recognizing unconscious biases and managing culture change from all levels is a difficult task, but iCON17 strives to give participants the tools to be successful, to provide answers to the hard questions, and to educate the work force about the challenges minorities face in engineering. We will provide the conference attendees with the ability to combat biases and stereotypes, and the confidence to say “I can engineer like a girl”.

The iCON17 Speaker Committee is pleased to announce the call for conference speakers. We are seeking outstanding programming in the following tracks, accompanying our conference theme, “Engineer Like a Girl”:

  • Engineer Like a Girl: Unconscious Bias, Diversity & Inclusion
  • Engineer Like an Innovator: Technical Topics, Innovation, Entrepreneurship
  • Engineer Like a SWE Member: SWE Business, Leadership Coaching Committee, Other SWE-Related Topics (e.g. Awards, Grants & Funding, SWE Career Development)
  • Engineer Like a Professional: Professional Development, Career Transitions, Workplace Topics
  • Engineer Like a Student: K-12 Outreach, Graduate School, Academia

All sessions will take place on Saturday, February 25, 2017 at the St. Louis Union Station Hotel.
