The Network, in cooperation with the New Mexico Commission on the Status of Women, in 2007 embarked upon a new means to recognize the contributions of women in New Mexico. This fall, the 6th Annual New Mexico Network for Women in Science and Engineering IMPACT! Award will be presented to a New Mexico woman for her extraordinary efforts in furthering the goals of the Network:
to encourage women to enter into and develop their careers in science, engineering, and allied professions.
The honoree will be recognized during the Networks' Annual Meeting and Technical Symposium,
which this year will be held 2-4 November 2012 at the New Mexico Museum of Space History in Alamogordo, NM.
