Programs
The programs listed below are for both undergraduate and graduate women students at WPI. They have been designed to address the ideas, concerns and needs that were addressed through focus groups and surveys conducted during the 2000-2001 academic year. Beginning in Fall 2001, an internal steering committee will continue to provide guidance concerning women's programs at WPI. If you have an idea for a program, or would like to share a concern affecting women students, please contact the Director of Women’s Programs at womens-programs@wpi.edu.
