National Society of Black Engineers Convention

The 2025 Annual Convention is a four-day event with an anticipated attendance of more than 15,000 participants, a Career/University Fair with more than 400 exhibitors and General Sessions with audiences of as many as 5,000 Convention-goers. During the Annual Convention, the Society conducts organizational business; elects national and regional leaders; holds technical and scientific competitions; provides professional and personal development, networking and celebratory activities; and much more.

The mission of the National Society of Black Engineers is “to increase the number of culturally responsible Black Engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively impact the community.”

We envision a world in which engineering is a mainstream word in homes and communities of color, and all Black students can envision themselves as engineers. In this world, Blacks exceed parity in entering engineering fields, earning degrees, and succeeding professionally.
