More than 40 members of NYU Tandon’s student chapter of SHPE attended the 2019 national convention held in Phoenix, Arizona, where they were honored for Outstanding Chapter Development of the Year.
纽约大学坦顿SHPE学生分会的40多名成员出席了在亚利桑那州凤凰城举行的2019年全国大会,他们在会上获得年度杰出分会发展奖。
The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) organizes an annual convention that attracts more than 9,500 STEM students, professionals, and corporate representatives. This year, more than 40 of those attendees hailed from NYU Tandon’s active and engaged student chapter.
西班牙专业工程师协会(SHPE)每年举办一次会议,吸引9500多名STEM学生、专业人士和企业代表参加。今年,40多位与会者来自纽约大学坦顿分校积极参与的学生分会。
The students not only attended the 2019 national convention, held in Phoenix, Arizona, they were honored there as well, garnering a plaque for Outstanding Chapter Development of the Year.
学生们不仅参加了在亚利桑那州凤凰城举行的2019年全国代表大会,他们也在那里获得了荣誉,获得了年度杰出篇章发展奖。
“We’ve been really focused on personal and professional growth,” said President Adriana Pink, “so it’s very gratifying to get recognition for that on the national stage.”
“我们一直专注于个人和职业发展,”总统Adriana Pink说,“因此在国家舞台上获得认可是非常令人欣慰的。”
Chapter members won much more than a plaque in Phoenix, however; the convention also serves as the country’s largest networking and career-focused event for Hispanic engineering professionals, and several Tandon attendees aced on-the-spot interviews and were offered internships and jobs at such organizations as 3M, Toyota, Honeywell, Northrup Grumman, John Deere, Qualcomm, American Express, Ecolab, and the National Security Agency, among others.
然而,分会成员在Phoenix赢得的不仅仅是一块牌匾;该大会也是该国最大的拉美裔工程专业人士的社交和职业活动,几位坦登与会者获得了现场面试的机会,并在3M、丰田、霍尼韦尔等机构获得了实习机会和工作机会,Northrup Grumman、John Deere、高通公司、美国运通、Ecolab和国家安全局等。
Chapter member Tomas Gutierrez, for example, will soon be including an Eaton internship on his CV, thanks to his stellar interview performance. “I’m a sophomore, and I feel very fortunate to have attended the convention this year,” Gutierrez said. “Receiving a great internship offer this early in my academic career is a direct result of being part of SHPE and taking advantage of all the opportunities it offers.” It would, of course, be hard to beat getting an on-the-spot internship offer, but Gutierrez explained that the event presented yet another highlight for him. “In addition to making brand-new connections, I also strengthened old bonds,” he said. “I even bumped into several of my high-school classmates who attend other universities and joined SHPE chapters there.”
例如,分会成员Tomas Gutierrez,由于他出色的面试表现,很快就会在简历中加入伊顿实习。Gutierrez说:“我是大二学生,今年能参加大会我感到非常幸运。“在我的学术生涯早期获得一份好的实习机会,是成为上海医药的一部分,并充分利用它提供的所有机会的直接结果。”当然,很难比获得一份现场实习机会更好,Gutierrez解释说,这次活动为他带来了又一个亮点。他说:“除了建立全新的联系,我还加强了旧的纽带。”。“我甚至偶遇了几位高中同学,他们就读于其他大学,并在那里加入了SHPE分会。”
“We all had an amazing time, as you can see from the smiles in every photo taken,” Pink summarized. “Everyone crammed in as many workshops, panels, networking events, and presentations as possible, and we’re getting ready to do it all over again when the convention is held in Denver next year.”
“我们都度过了一段美妙的时光,从每张照片中的微笑可以看出,”Pink总结道。“每个人都尽可能多地参加研讨会、座谈会、网络活动和演讲,明年在丹佛举行大会时,我们正准备重新开始。”
She points out that the chapter enjoys strong support from its dedicated co-advisors, Carmen Villafane and Professor Jose Ulerio; Dean Jelena Kovačević; NYU’s Opportunity Programs; and others in the university community. “It’s wonderful to be a part of a school that values the diversity we bring and the contributions we make,” she said. “Lots of people appreciate Hispanic food, music, and culture, but NYU Tandon also honors our engineering abilities and potential.”
她指出,该章得到了专门的共同顾问Carmen Villafane和Jose Ulerio教授、Jelena Kovačević 院长纽约大学机会方案以及大学界其他人士的大力支持。她说:“能成为一所重视我们带来的多样性和做出的贡献的学校的一员真是太好了。”。“很多人欣赏西班牙裔的食物、音乐和文化,但纽约大学坦顿分校也尊重我们的工程能力和潜力。”
