University of New Mexico

The University of New Mexico, located in Albuquerque, on the banks of the historic Rio Grande, and bordered on the east by the 10,000-foot Sandia Mountains, and to the west by a high volcanic mesa, and established in 1889. Develops and offers comprehensive educational programs at the undergraduate, graduate, post-graduate, and professional levels.

The Women In Science and Engineering (WISE) Program in order to achieve its missions, provides career enrichment activities and sessions for women undergraduates, including educational activities, networking sessions, career information workshops, and mentoring/Externships activities. The intent is to create an environment that facilitates the preparation of women undergraduates to successfully transition from school to work in science-and technology-related professionals.
