What We Do
Community Outreach
Giving back to the community is important to NVC SHPE. We take pride in our contributions
and are always looking for new ways to engage with our neighbors.
Napa High School Engineering Club:
Our members helped establish the school's Engineering club, and regularly visit to
take part in and help guide the meetings along. We are currently in works of turning
the club into an official SHPE Jr Chapter.
​Vallejo High School Engineering Academy:
Some board members currently sit on the VHS Engineering Academy Advisory Board where
they help plan engineering related curriculum
Industry Networking
As a chapter we seek to provide our members the opportunity to converse with professional
engineers and students looking to enter the STEM fields. Through our events our members
are able to seek advice from others relating to their major or field, and increase
their network with professionals.
