Westinghouse Women in Nuclear, or W-WIN, is an association of Westinghouse Electric Company employees, focusing on women who are working to:

• promote an environment that supports leadership development of women in Westinghouse;
  
  
• establish a framework within Westinghouse and nuclear utilities through which women can further their professional development, to include but not limited to networking with customers in the industry and mentoring women; and
  
  
• promote public awareness about facts on nuclear energy and the nuclear industry and promote career interest in engineering and nuclear technologies.

Through its Women In Nuclear (WIN) chapter, Westinghouse Electric Company offers a $2,500 scholarship to a female high school senior graduating in the spring from a Pittsburgh area school. The candidate must intend to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in engineering, mathematics, or physical sciences at an accredited college or university.

We would like to thank this year’s applicants and announce that the 2012 Scholarship Winner has been selected. She will receive her award at a breakfast ceremony at Westinghouse Headquarters on May 15, 2012. Please visit this website in February 2013 for information regarding next year’s scholarship.

Westinghouse employees in the United States and around the World are involved in Women in Nuclear.
