WISE (Women in IT/ICT Sharing Experiences) was started by STARS Alliance in early 2009 in partnership with students from IT Practicum at Florida State University in the College of Communication and Information (cci.fsu.edu). Our organization is made up of women from FSU (mostly in IT and ICT but not limited to them) who are devoted to banding together and staying strong as we prepare to enter the workforce in a mostly male-dominated career field.
