Engineers solve problems for society.
From transportation issues to environmental issues to advances in medical instruments, engineers look at the problems of today and tomorrow with an interest in innovative and exciting solutions to meet the needs of society. Women are especially capable in evaluating problem areas and implementing innovative designs to solve important problems. At the University of Maine we welcome women as full partners in the engineering endeavor. We provide the learning environment, encouragement, and sense of community to succeed in a challenging technical profession. The university and the college provide many support groups for women.
