IEEE IGDTUW began its inspiring journey as IEEE IGIT, inaugurated on 6th February 2004 with around 33
members. Today, the student branch boasts about 200 active members, stepping beyond common perceptions.
IEEE IGDTUW provides various platforms for aspiring women engineers, offering opportunities to host a
plethora of interesting technical and non-technical events, participate in various technical
competitions, and attend national and international conferences. The society's continued endeavor is to
encourage innovation and technical excellence among young engineers, aiming for socially constructive
technical development toward a globally competent India.
WIE IGDTUW
We at IEEE WIE (Women in Engineering) IGDTUW, aim to motivate young girls to take up technical roles in
the society and
lead their life as confident individuals while leaving a positive impact on the society. To achieve
our goal, IEEE WIE IGDTUW puts in persistent efforts throughout the year with the help of various
activities.
IEEE WIE IGDTUW is the recipient of the prestigious Darrel Chong Award, Gold medal for 2016-17 for
the “Sparsh Outreach Program” . Sparsh is The Outreach Program by IEEE WIE IGDTUW Affinity Group
where volunteers interact with girls from the orphanage, Kilkari .Student Volunteers under Sparsh,
regularly visit the Orphanage to share their time with the girls over there and inspire them in
every possible way.
More than teaching them any subject, what values more is the experience shared at both the ends.
IEEE WIE IGDTUW feels extremely honoured to be able to impact and inspire even a few girls through
these activities and plans to continue such activities in the future as well.
