Hispanic Engineer & Information Technology magazine has released its 2019 back-to-college issue to mark Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 to October 15). Our cover story features a wide-ranging interview with Rodrigo T. Garcia, co-founder of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE).
A lot has changed since Hispanic Engineer first interviewed him. More than 25 years on, we rediscover how SHPE was founded in Los Angeles in 1974, and how the organization established student chapters that would grow rapidly around the United States.
SHPE’s mission is to change lives by empowering those in the Hispanic community to realize their fullest potential and impact the world through science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) awareness, access, support, and development.
This issue of Hispanic Engineer & Information Technology magazine not only recognizes the contributions of trailblazing Hispanic and Latino American scientists and engineers to the United States; we also bring tips, advice, and motivational stories from STEM graduates and students at four-year Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs).
We also visit community colleges to learn about the innovative things they are doing to provide affordable training and education that enhance the digital skills of those starting lifelong learning for the digital workforce.
