Women in Construction Management (WICM) is a student-led organization in the BCM department that promotes careers for women in the construction industry through educational opportunities, social networking and community service.

Women In Construction Management (WICM) is very active in community service, networking within the industry and providing social outlets to its members. WICM’s community outreach event is Girl Scout Day. The event, usually hosted in the fall, attracts approximately 100 central Indiana Girl Scouts to Purdue and the Building Construction Management Construction Lab to earn their Ms. Fix-It Badge. They must complete eight activities to earn it.
