The Women in IT Networking at SC (WINS) program is now accepting applications for the 2025 program.  Since 2015, the WINS program has provided an immersive “hands-on” mentorship opportunity for early- to mid-career applicants in the IT field who are selected to participate in the ground-up construction of SCinet, one of the fastest and most advanced computer networks in the world, built annually for the Supercomputing Conference (SC) to be held in St Louis, Missouri in November, 2025.

The program collaborates with SCinet committee leadership to match each awardee with a SCinet team and a mentor; offers travel funding for awardees; and provides ongoing support and career development opportunities for the awardees before, during, and after the conference.
