Welcome to the Madison Chapter of Graduate Women in Science (GWIS – Beta Chapter). Our chapter was founded in 1922 and is proud to be the oldest, continually active chapter of GWIS. We are a diverse group of scientists striving to inspire, support, recognize, and empower women in science. We welcome members of all genders who have undergraduate degrees and are involved in research at all levels, including graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, research associates, staff, and faculty. All scientific fields are welcome – we believe diversity in all areas strengthens our organization.
The GWIS–Madison Newsletter is a biweekly update sharing upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, member spotlights, and professional development resources within our chapter and the broader UW–Madison community. Each issue highlights ways to get involved and stay connected with GWIS activities throughout the semester.
