SWE Pittsburgh Leadership Summit 2022 - Saturday, Sept 24
Carnegie Mellon University
5th Annual SWE Collegiate Leadership Summit
Written by -SWE Collegiate Liaison-Lucero Lopez
This year’s collegiate leadership summit was held at Carnegie Mellon University in the Danforth Conference Room in the Cohen University Center on September 24 th , 2022. Together with the professional SWE Pittsburgh section, our sponsors Hatch, Eaton, and Omnicell, and the collegiate sections of Geneva College, Grove City, Carnegie Mellon University, Duquesne University, Penn State- Erie Campus and the University of Pittsburgh. The summit covered a wide range of topics including membership, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, mentorship, outreach and many more SWE resources. Brought back by popular demand, we also designated a block of time for officer roundtables: a session dedicated to each position from each prospective school to sit down with one another and share ideas, insights and experiences that would help in the upcoming year. This session is always a big hit, in fact, the Carnegie Mellon University SWE Section President Siya Scindia commented, “My favorite part of the summit was the officer round tables session! It was great to connect with SWE leaders from other collegiate sections and bounce ideas off of each other. I definitely feel like all the sections are much more connected now, and I’m looking forward to collaborating on future initiatives.” Needless to say we hope to continue this tradition for all future collegiate summits.

In addition to making connections to our professional SWE section, the collegiate students got an opportunity to network with our attending sponsors. Hatch delivered the keynote address and answered students’ questions about the transition into industry. Eaton presented some live demonstration on the variety of products they offered and highlights upcoming opportunities for collegiates to consider. With the close of a successful summit, I want to say thank you again to all our SWE Pittsburgh Speakers and volunteers and the generous support of our sponsors.
Thank you to our sponsors!
