IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) is the largest international professional organization dedicated to promoting women engineers and scientists.

The IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) Affinity Group of the Kharagpur Section (Region 10) was formed in 2010, and is dedicated to promoting and encouraging girls and women to take up careers in science and technology. Over the past few years, the IEEE WIE Affinity Group of Kharagpur Section, in collaboration with the IEEE Student Branch of IIT Kharagpur and Kharagpur Section, has successfully organized several technical workshops, international conferences, and networking events.
