Become a board member
NACME was formed in 1974, when a group of corporate and educational leaders resolved to address the need for diverse talent in the field of engineering.
J. Stanford Smith, then senior vice president of General Electric Company, inspired attendees at the Engineering Education Conference with an urgent call to develop the technological talent in minority communities. “The only acceptable solution,” he said, “is to take bold, innovative, all-out action to increase the supply of minority engineering graduates, not by a few percentage points, but ten or fifteen-fold.”
Today, the NACME Board of Directors remains the most senior group of executives dedicated to designing implementing solutions to the diversity challenges our nation faces in the fields engineering and computer science.
