DALLAS - Hispanic graduating high school seniors and college students pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) are invited to apply for more than $500 K in scholarships available through AHETEMS (Advancing Hispanic Excellence in Technology, Engineering, Math and Science).

To address the need for more Hispanics in engineering, the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) is endorsing the new book ¡Ay Mijo! Why Do You Want To Be An Engineer? as a way to get the word out to young people about the benefits of pursuing a career in the field.

The Hispanic Alliance for STEM Opportunities marks collaboration between the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), the Hispanic Engineer National Achievement Awards Conference (HENAAC) and IBM. Officials with the two nonprofit groups and IBM announced their alliance during SHPE’s annual National Technical and Career Conference Jan. 10-13 in Denver.
