National Society of Black Engineers

Even if you don't want (or afford) to go to a HBCU, there are always organizations that you could join that support black people, but this one means a lot to me because it relates to what I would like to major in: Engineering!

The National Society of Black Engineers has five objectives, as stated on their website:

There are a lot of chapters in different colleges and even some in participating high schools and middle schools. The organization does frequent competitions for children interested and engineering from middle school to high school and it gives out scholarships and helps to establish connections in the Engineering field for college students.

It is great to see organizations owned by black people, for black people, and out to further black excellence
