WIM stands for “Women in Microwaves” and is the subset of Women in Engineering (WIE) working within the field of microwave engineering and typically active within the MTT society. WIM is also a subcommittee under MGA within the MTT-S AdCom.
Welcome Note From The Chair
I began my advocacy for women in tech when I was a student at university in 2005. We started to provide internships for school girls to give them insights into a variety of professions in science and technology. In the coming years, I was involved in many projects to attract more women to electrical engineering. In 2017, I organized my first WIM event at the European Microwave Week. During this event, we tried for the first time to combine the WIM event with an event for school girls, which was a great success.
I’m excited to step into the role of the new chair for the WIM subcommittee. Together, we will continue to raise awareness and promote discussions that empower women to support each other, feel connected, and make a difference in our workplaces and industry. Have confidence in yourself and encourage and inspire others to do the same. Together, we will make a positive impact for WIM.
