Strengthening Familia
The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers Chapter at California State University, Northridge (SHPE CSUN) proudly stands as one of the earliest SHPE chapters established following the organization’s founding in Los Angeles in 1974. Founded in 1976, SHPE CSUN has a long-standing legacy of empowering Hispanic students pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
For decades, our chapter has been committed to supporting and uplifting Hispanic students at CSUN, as well as those throughout the San Fernando Valley and the Greater Los Angeles Area. Through professional development, academic support, community outreach, and social engagement, SHPE CSUN fosters an inclusive environment that promotes growth, leadership, and success. Our mission is to recruit, retain, and graduate Hispanic students while preparing them to become influential professionals and leaders in their communities and industries.
