about us
UCLE Women In Tech is aimed at diversifying the tech field by organising various events.
Our biggest event is @HackIT, which is a hackathon focused promoting on gender and skillset diversity. Our main objective is to decrease the gender gap in the field and provide an opportunity for participants to become closer to getting the job of their dreams.
This year we are running SWIT for the second year, which is a shadowing program aimed at university students and is exceptional due to having 100% female participants.
