About Us.Who We ArePhi Sigma Rho is a social sorority centered around forging a strong community for women pursuing engineering. Our emphasis is around the relationships that we form and the memories that we make, but as engineers, we also support each other in our academic and professional endeavors. As a national organization, members of Phi Rho are part of a nationwide network of current members and alumni that thrives even after graduation.
The Mu Chapter is an associate member of the University of Washington's Panhellenic organization. This means that we choose not to participate in certain Panhellenic events, such as formal fall recruitment, and maintain our own recruitment process. However, we still have access to many of the benefits and connections to other Greek organizations on our campus, by taking part in Panhellenic-sponsored events and programming and connecting with other sororities through exchanges. |
Our Values
FRIENDSHIPTo be there for one another during good times or bad; to build meaningful relationships that last far beyond college.
|
SCHOLARSHIPTo work hard in pursuit of a career in engineering and to continually strive for excellence.
|
ENCOURAGEMENTTo be loyal to each other, to celebrate each others' accomplishments and support each other during setbacks.

What We Do
Here at the University of Washington, we encourage women to join STEM fields, in which they are typically known to be part of a minority. Members of Phi Sigma Rho are capable and inspiring women who are also powerful scholars. In every way, members of Phi Sigma Rho impact their community.

Letter from the President

Welcome to the Mu chapter of Phi Sigma Rho’s website! I hope our enthusiasm for sisterhood and passion for STEM are able to shine brightly through this platform to you. Within our chapter of Phi Rho exists a strong desire and ability to support each other as women involved in a workforce that is male dominated. We are a community of individuals who boost each other up at all times; who celebrate each others successes and cheer each other up during setbacks. We have opportunities to grow as leaders and motivate each other to be our best selves. In my members I have found lifelong friends, role models, and overall some of the most passionate people I will ever meet. We are here for each other for things as small as cracking a joke to brighten someone’s day or as big as helping someone gain their dream job. I hope you enjoy browsing our website and please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you have! All my best, Brianna Millward Mu Chapter President |
