Multiply Your Options

Multiply Your Options (MYO) is an interactive conference designed for 8th grade students. MYO is a conference that celebrates Women in Engineering. We welcome anyone to attend, and are proud to showcase and celebrate the incredible women in our community and in our state.

The morning consists of hands-on activities facilitated by our amazing UConn Engineering students, a majority of them from the Society of Women Engineers (SWE). The afternoon consist of interactive speakers and learning more about careers in engineering from our inspirational UConn Engineering Alumni, many of them who are women or in the SWE Professional chapter, and other close friends who are engineers in CT.
