Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers

The VT-SHPE chapter provides academic, professional, and personal support to our members in the Virginia Tech campus. We aim to prepare the future engineer by fostering academic support, networking opportunities, and community outreach initiatives to those people seeking higher education. Our chapter allows young Latino students to develop into well rounded and effective leaders through our student government which handles the chapter's administrative and executive affairs.

Furthermore, our officers and members are active participants in SHPE, Inc leadership conferences held on a semester basis. At Virginia Tech we are readily involved with the growing Hispanic community and seek to close the gap between Hispanic and non-Hispanic engineers. We seek to produce high-quality Hispanic engineers who will not only be filled with technical talent, but also with awareness and the courage to better themselves and the community around them.
