“There are so many organizations that promote social and technical growth,” Kelly said. “From National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) , Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), to Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE), AI Student Association, LYNX Robotics … there is a club here for everyone. I have met so many friends outside of school, gained internship offers, and even industry connections from taking the first step to join these clubs.”
