Greater Maryland Graduate Women in Science

GWIS CONNECTS WOMEN IN SCIENCE

Greater Maryland Graduate Women in Science (GM-GWIS) is your local Chapter of Graduate Women in Science (http://www.gwis.org). GWIS has been empowering women as individuals and as a community since 1921. For almost 100 years we have worked to advance the participation and recognition of women in scientific fields through career development and leadership training, networking, awards, and fellowships.

Our mission is simple: to build a global community that inspires, supports, recognizes, and empowers women in science. We accomplish that mission by staying true to our three guiding principles: Connect, Lead, and Empower.

Your local Frederick, MD Chapter was started in late 2016. We partner with many regional organizations to bring career development and mentoring to Frederick-area women in science. Many of our events are free and open to the public. Find out more at: https://www.facebook.com/GMGWIS/ and contact us at greatermaryland@gwis.org

Membership in GM-GWIS is available at various levels (undergraduate to post-graduate professionals) to include all women in science, engineering, mathematics, psychology, and related fields.
