MissionThe mission of the Women's Advancement Office in the Schulich School of Engineering and the Faculty of Science is to create an inclusive and supportive environment for faculty, postdocs, and students, thereby contributing proactively to the broad needs of our diverse society. The WAO aims to attract and retain female faculty members, post doctorates, graduate and undergraduate students in science and engineering and provides programming that enhances their experience at the University of Calgary. The WAO offers events, workshops and meetings to help establish and advance effective careers for women in science and engineering. It also provides a point of contact for women in both faculties for support, questions and networking. Please see the Women's Advancement Office's Strategic Plan for 2009-2012 for more information.
