Female Student in Professor Moghe's lab
The mission of the Rutgers University Women in Engineering Initiative (RU WEI) is to provide support for future and current female engineers and to engage various stakeholders in women in engineering programs. RU WE has four objectives: (1) to recruit young women into engineering; (2) to provide support for currently enrolled female engineering students; (3) to link various stakeholders in an effort to enhance the diversity of the engineering workforce; and (4) to contribute to existing research frameworks.

Programs
Beginning in Fall 2012, the Douglass Women in Engineering Living-Learning Community will offer first-year, undergraduate women in engineering a residential home on the Busch campus. This unique partnership between Douglass Residential College and the School of Engineering will provide incoming students the opportunity to live, learn, and connect to an active academic and social network designed to ease the transition to Rutgers and facilitate success in engineering.
