IEEE Women in Engineering (IEEE WIE) Magazine, a new publication that will be issued twice a year to IEEE WIE members, has launched its premiere issue. The publication, sent as an interactive PDF file which enables easy navigation through the different sections of the magazine, aims to help attract, retain and sustain women in the engineering and science fields. Its articles integrate engineering subjects with current issues facing society including careers, health care, medicine, law, governance and womenâ??s issues. A print edition will be produced for distribution at symposiums and other events throughout the year. IEEE WIE currently has more than 12,000 members worldwide, with over 176 affinity groups â?? the largest international professional organization dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists. Karen Panetta, 2008 IEEE Women in Engineering Committee chair, serves as editor-in-chief. View the publication at www.ieee.org/committee/women/13350.pdf.WIE Magazine
