===Networking Event=== | ===Networking Event=== | ||
Every winter semester, Queer | Every winter semester, Queer Engineer hosts our largest event: the networking event. We invite LGBTQ+ professionals from all types of engineering backgrounds to share their experiences about being queer in an engineering workplace. This evening is not only a great way to learn about the engineering profession, but also a great opportunity to meet a diverse set of individuals. Like all our events, it is open to everyone who has an interest in learning more about engineering or the LGBTQ+ Community. | ||
===Socials and Activities=== | |||
Throughout the year, we host a multitude of different activities and socials to help bring the engineering and LGBTQ+ community together. This includes collaborations with other McGill groups, such as Queer McGill, and also external groups such as QueerTech and other universities. | |||
Events are hosted about once a week. Some of our events include skating, dancing, "gaymes" nights, going to the gay village, socials and many more. | |||
