The Mercer Chapter of the Society of Women Engineers received its charter in 1992. The National Society of Women Engineers (SWE) was founded in 1950. SWE is a non-profit educational and service organization that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career aspiration for women. SWE empowers women to succeed and advance in those aspirations and be recognized for their their life-changing contributions and achievements
as engineers and leaders.

The Mercer Chapter of SWE is involved in many ways on campus and in the community. Some of the activities for the upcoming year include the following:

- Annual Chili Cook-off
- Resume Workshop
- Christmas Philanthropy
