Applications are now being accepted to help plan the 18th annual Georgia Tech Women's Leadership Conference.

The event is scheduled for Saturday, March 10, 2018, but planning is already underway. The one-day conference offers workshops, speakers, and discussions aimed at training women leaders from local college campuses and the Atlanta community.

The conference began in 1998 as a means to celebrate, recognize, and learn more about the strong leadership exhibited by women of the Georgia Tech community. The conference is a gathering of women who have sought to become leaders in the classroom and the boardroom, as well as the communities where they reside.

In order to hold a position on the planning committee, students must have a minimum of a 2.0 GPA.

Applications are due Friday, Sept. 8. Apply online.
