About BU Women's Professional Development Committee

The BU Women's Professional Development Committee is a student-led organization dedicated to advancing professional growth and career readiness for graduate-level women in science at Boston University. Based in Boston, MA, the committee provides comprehensive professional development programming designed to equip emerging women scientists with the skills and networks necessary for success in STEM careers.

The organization hosts the SheInspires Lunch Series, a monthly networking initiative that connects graduate students with accomplished female professors, researchers, and Boston University alumni working across diverse scientific disciplines. These intimate small-group sessions provide invaluable insights into navigating careers in STEM fields while building meaningful mentorship relationships. Additionally, the committee offers a monthly Workshop Series focused on developing both professional and personal competencies, with topics tailored to student interests and career goals.

The BU Women's Professional Development Committee collaborates with complementary organizations including GWISE (Graduate Women in Science and Engineering), GMSSO (Graduate Medical Sciences Student Organization), and BU's BEST (Broadening Experiences in Scientific Training) to create a comprehensive support ecosystem. Founded in 2018 by Dr. Sanae ElShourbagy Ferreira, the committee continues to expand its reach and impact under dedicated leadership.

Beyond event programming, the committee maintains a robust Resource page offering membership opportunities, conference information, mentoring resources, and curated publications on women in STEM. The organization also provides financial support resources for members seeking to attend conferences through various institutional funding channels. Students and faculty of all genders are welcome to participate in this inclusive professional development community serving the Boston area.
