Welcome to SHPE INDIANA

Our mission is to serve as role models, foster education among Hispanics and be the source of Hispanic Scientific and Engineering talent in Indiana.

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. The objective was to create a national organization of engineers to serve as role models in the Hispanic community.

In the same manner, with the same mission and following the example of our founding padres, a group of successful Hispanic professionals across the state of Indiana founded SHPE Indiana on June 30, 2006.

SHPE Indiana members receive the benefits of becoming members of the most prestigious scientific and engineering Hispanic professional organization, business networking, discounts to top notch educational and professional seminars, career development workshops as well as access to a network of leading companies searching for top Hispanic professional talent and involvement to community events.

We are a group of successful professionals wanting to make a difference with the growing Hispanic community in the state of Indiana. We work with young students and do believe that education continues to be the easy path to the American dream.

Dear Members, As you know two of the goals of our chapter for this year include to increase the number of professional members as well as to increase Corporate sponsorship. Friday October 24, Tanya, Ruben and myself met with a team at Eli Lilly Company. The team consisted of a representative from human resources and various Hispanic engineers at various locations in state working for Lilly. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss SHPE National but focusing in SHPE-Indiana Professional Chapter. We talked about the various events at the National and local level, opportunities for professional members to be involved in the community and/or for professional development. We also discussed the services the local chapter can provide and the advantage of having their engineers and company involved with our Professional Chapter. Eli Lilly is going to attend the National Conference at Phoenix in November and your chapter will be there to help maximize the benefits of the conference and make this a great experience for them. We want to have more meetings like this one, so please get involved and let me know or any members of the EBOD how we can support your efforts. Thank you and have a great day Lourdes Palacio President SHPE-Indiana Professional Chapter
