                                Welcome to the SHPE Puget Sound Professional Chapter!

                                                                                       

 The chapter serves engineers, scientists, and professionals in the Greater Seattle area through the concept of networking and community involvement. Our mission includes making leaders, mentors and champions who are willing to reach out to the community with enough encouragement to make a difference to those young Hispanic's lives. We are always looking for members who are willing to enhance their skills, improve our community and have fun at the same time.

 Community Outreach

 

Intro to Web Design

Microsoft May 2009

 

 Our chapter organizes various events throughout the year that involve working with children in elementary school to college students. Our programs are designed to teach young people about the different opportunities available to them in engineering and technology and provide them access to Hispanic role models working in these industries.  Our members are extremely passionate and committed to organizing and participating in these events.  We are always looking for new volunteers!

If you are interested in being part of these events, please contact us at: communityoutreach@shpepsc.org

 Professional Development

 

WISE  (Women in Science & Engineering)Conference UW 2009

 

There are professional development opportunities that are provided to help our members grow and develop new skills.  We hold leadership retreats, attend SHPE conferences in which professionals from all over the country gather to share best practices, and work with the University of Washington SHPE Student Chapter to help them transition to the business world.  We also provide leadership opportunities for our members to lead the organization of events within the chapter, which will help to gain planning and communication skills. We recognize these leadership achievements at our end of the year SHPE Banquet. Contact us at:

 Networking & Social events

 

End of the year banquet 2008-2009

University of Washington Club

 

    We understand the value of networking to meet new people in our community.  We often partner with other Hispanic organizations in the Puget Sound to sponsor fun events such as Halloween parties, BBQ's, Networking for a cause, etc., which open the doors to new introductions. We also organize socials within our SHPE chapter so that our members can also get to know each other and form life-long relationships.

 

 Thank you to our sponsors!
