Description
Founded in 1974, the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers is a national non-profit organization that promotes Latinos in
engineering, math, and science. Every year, SHPE host the a conference entitled "Future Meets Present." This year, the conference
was changed to "Esperanza En Educación" to go with our goals of preparing the Latino community for college. During the conference
we provide workshops encourage underrepresented minority students to attend a higher education institution and expose them to the
educational resources available to ensure their success. In addition, participants have the opportunity to interact with
professionals in science and engineering fields among other academic areas of interest. Participants also benefit by increasing
his/her chance of obtaining one of SHPE's national scholarships.
