Background

We are WECE, the Women in Electrical and Computer Engineering - a student organization at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign dedicated to supporting women within the Illinois ECE department. The webapp was initiated by former Infrastruture Director Eugenia Chen and managed by Joshmita Chintala and Estrella Popoca. This site is now maintained by current Infrastructure Director at WECE, Gabriela Hinostroza Perez.
