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.

The SHPE-UNR student chapter was founded at the end of the spring of 2004. SHPE-UNR
started to get involved with other latino organizations the following fall. The
chapter has attended national and regional conferences hosted by the national
office. Such conferences are held in diverse locations of the United
States. The greatest achievement SHPE-UNR has accomplished was hosting the
Regional Student Leadership Conference in the spring of 2006. The success of
the conference was due to the help of hard-working organizers and our regional
leaders.
