About the Small Group Program
Small Groups is a benefit only offered to members of the M&M Group program and is an idea that started from active M&M Group participants. Small Groups were added to the M&M Group Program to provide an opportunity for participants to interact with a smaller group of fellow female engineers outside of the M&M Group monthly meetings (where attendance can be as many as 100 women). These intact groups (i.e., you meet regularly with the same small group of women) encourage networking in a smaller setting and formation of new and long-lasting mentoring relationships- where you can give/receive help and guidance on a variety of topics related to college life. Each group will also be paired with an Industry Coach (IC). The Industry Coaches are women alumni from the School of Engineering. They can give advice on numerous topics such as being a women in industry and how to obtain a proper work-life balance. Plus, when you come to the large monthly M&M Group meetings, you will already know some people- your fellow Small Group members! The Small Groups can be really creative and do anything from having study tables or movie nights to coming up with group names and t-shirts. It ultimately depends on what you want from it.
