Women In Science Society At The University Of Sydney

The Women in Science Society (WISSOC) was founded towards the end of 2016 with a vision and constitutional aim to encourage and support gender equity in Science at USYD, in hope to instigate the long-needed cultural shift toward a STEM community that does not discriminate. Prior to the establishment of the Society, there was distinct lack of a student body that represented the voice of female students studying Science degrees or subjects. As such, the Society adopts the outlook of making a difference by implementing brand new programs, events, and initiatives.
