SHPE: Society
of Hispanic Professional Engineers
The Society of
Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) was founded in Los Angeles,
California, in 1974 by a group of engineers employed by the city of
Los Angeles. Their objective was to form a national organization of
professional engineers to serve as role models in the Hispanic
community.
The concept of Networking was the key basis for the organization.
SHPE quickly established two student chapters to begin the network
that would grow to encompass the nation as well as reach countries
outside the United States. Today, SHPE enjoys a strong but
independent network of professional and student chapters throughout
the nation.
