The National Society of Black Engineers, NSBE, is a professional society that aims to have 10,000 black Engineers graduate from college by 2025. By engaging the youth as early as 3rd grade in STEM, NSBE helps students and professionals develop the skills needed for a successful professional career.

We learn more about NSBE from Tony Stanford and Quincy Smith, the president and vice president of the NSBE’s Charlotte chapter.  They touch on the most significant benefit from NSBE is the networking, which played a large role in their career success.  You will find the details about their unique experience on how they started and the journey with NSBE. 

In this episode, you also learn about NSBE’s initiatives, such as their Walk for Education, and 
The Summer Engineering Experience for Kids  (SEEK).  SEEK is NSBE’s yearly summer program for 3rd to 5th graders, and it became a three-week virtual program during COVID, for future black engineers to learn about drones, robotics, and coding. The program is one of many initiatives by NSBE to foster the development of future black engineers.
