The National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) will hold its 36th Annual Convention March 31 through April 4 in Toronto, Canada, which will mark the first ever international convention in the 35 years since NSBE’s creation.

This year’s theme is “Engineering a Global Impact.” The conference boasts over 200 sponsors and exhibitors from known companies as well as prominent colleges, universities and government agencies from the U.S. and Canada.

“It is with great pride that we host the convention in Toronto, as NSBE recognizes the importance of doing business globally,” said Stacyann Russell, NSBE National Chair.

“Our pre-college and high school members will gain a stamp on their passports as well as a stamp on their personal outlook on life,” added Carl B. Mack, NSBE Executive Director.
