Welcome to
the Central Ohio Society of Women Engineers (SWE) website! My
name is Lee Ann Schwope and I am the FY07 Central Ohio SWE President.
This is my first year as section President and I am both excited
and thankful for the opportunity. In 2003 I graduated with a
Bachelors degree in Materials Science and Engineering from The Ohio
State University. Following graduation, I started working for
Excera Materials Group. I currently manage 4 engineers in both
manufacturing and technology development.
In 2004 I began to be involved with our Central Ohio Section after
meeting another SWE member at an OSU Women in Engineering (WIE)
mentoring event. After attending my first membership meeting, I
was hooked and joined SWE the same week! My first two years as a
professional member I served on the Council of Representatives (COR).
In 2005 I took a national position as the Chair of the
Environmental Scanning Focus Interest Group (ES FIG). This has
given me the opportunity to understand the vision and goals of SWE and
how to utilize these resources.
I am very much looking forward to the upcoming year! One of our
largest events will be hosting the first Region G Professional
Development Conference in May 2007! We will also be hosting our
3rd annual Mother/Daughter banquet in the fall. The event is
wonderful and you may bring your daughter, mother, grandmother, or
someone special to you! You can see a complete list of our
upcoming activities through the on-line calendar of events.
Our Section's main goals for this year will be to begin doing strategic
planning, hosting a successful Professional Development Conference and
helping to increase the number of professional engineers, specifically
women! We also hope to have an active membership and be involved
in the Columbus community. If you are interested in joining SWE
or are a member and have interests or ideas in technical, social,
community or educational activities feel free to let me know! We
are flexible and are willing to look into new opportunities for our
Section.
I hope to see you at some of our upcoming events! If you
have any questions or want to learn more about how to get involved this
year, please feel free to e-mail me!
Sincerely –
Lee Ann Schwope
Central Ohio SWE President FY07
