About Us

Women In Science (WIS) is a division of the National Association of Women in Science (AWIS) and was created in the spring of 1996. We are dedicated to the advancement of scientific knowledge, with primary emphasis on women’s issues. WIS provides a community for female students in the Natural Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin and is a great resource for meeting fellow students as well as science faculty and staff. These relationships can prove invaluable later in life. WIS is a window to all the activities that the College of Natural Sciences has to offer and is a great way to become an involved student on campus. The organization offers a wide range of activities from academic to informal. Best of all, it’s fun
