This Spring 2021: 

We want to highlight our NSBE, Jr. team of students, Viper Tech, from Nicholas Orem, MS for participating and winning 3RD PLACE for their Data-Driven Design (DDD) at the National NSBE and were able to advance to the 1st ever Virtual National Ten80 STEM competition.

Vyper Tech DDD Project (1)

Students participating in NSBE Jr. will receive a variety of academic and technical materials, including financial aid information, career counseling guides, SAT/ACT prep, self-paced college assessment, leadership development and much more. NSBE Jr. chapters participate in academic, engineering and design competitions across the country. NSBE conferences have various activities, workshops and competitions promoting academic and technical development. Also available are NSBE scholarships and awards for NSBE Jr. members.

As part of GapBuster NSBE Jr. chapters, students will participate in tournaments at NSBE conferences which require teamwork and academic prowess. In 2013, GapBuster won the Region II NSBE competition in multiple categories.

2014 includes the NASCAR racing series, in which students build and race model cars. We succeeded in regional contests for our NASCAR teams. At the 40th National Conference, our Wheaton Knights placed second in presentation for the NASCAR Ten80 competition and third in overall points!

Currently meeting at Wheaton High School, Sligo Middle School and the Center for Educational Partnership in Riverdale, MD.

Our NSBE Jr. program welcomes volunteers proficient in STEM subjects, to aid students in academic enrichment, prep for conferences with our racing gear and most importantly, to have FUN!

The National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) is one of the largest student-run
organizations in the country. NSBE’s mission is to increase the number of culturally
responsible Black engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively
impact the community. GapBuster’s NSBE Jr. chapters in Wheaton High School, Sligo Middle School and the Center for Educational Partnership provide award-winning academic enrichment and team-building.

 

The Pre-College Initiative (PCI) program of NSBE Jr. provides activities to help students discover firsthand how engineering and technology relate to the world around them and discover the excitement of academic excellence, leadership, technical development and teamwork.

Goals of PCI:

  • Help students develop a positive attitude toward academic excellence
  • Stimulate enthusiasm about Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
  • Encourage K-12th graders to pursue degrees in Engineering and other technical fields
  • Increase the number of African Americans attending and graduating from college
  • Encourage and support parental commitment to children’s education
  • Raise cultural awareness among students
