Pre-College Initiative (PCI)
The Pre-College Initiative (PCI) Program is designed to stimulate the interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields, or STEM. The goal is to encourage students in grades K–12 to attend college and pursue technical degrees. Our PCI program 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.

Technical Out Reach Community Help (T.O.R.C.H.)
The Technical Out Reach Community Help (T.O.R.C.H.) Program was developed in 2000 as the National Society of Black Engineer's answer to the Digital Divide. The purpose of the T.O.R.C.H. Community Service Initiative is to encourage community service among our membership and communities that are underserved with regards to digital technology. GTSBE serves its community through a T.O.R.C.H. center at the Harland Boys and Girls club as well as community service projects throughout the year. At the Harland Boys and Girls club GTSBE members have the opportunity to work with middle school youth on engineering and computer aided projects. To be a part of TORCH all you need are 2 hours on Friday afternoon and the desire to work with youth.
If you are interested in participating in T.O.R.C.H. contact Ryan Adkins.
