Giving to the WIEP

 

Thanks for your interest in contributing to the University of Colorado at Boulder's Women in Engineering Program! Your support will help talented female students become tomorrow's engineers, innovators, and leaders.

Currently, 28 percent of female undergraduate students receive partial scholarships or grants. Our goal is to provide enhanced financial support to 50 percent by the year 2010.

Choose from these contribution categories:

  • WIEP Participation Scholarship Fund
    Donations large and small are pooled and distributed to students in the form of $1,000 to $1,500 participation scholarships, renewable for up to four years.
