The Department of Defense (DoD) strongly supports increasing the number of Hispanics and Latinos entering STEM related fields. For such reasons, DoD has hosted the Viva TechnologyTM Program for 6 years in a row at the HENAAC conference.
The Viva Technology™ Conference Event takes place during the HENAAC Conference and includes over 300 students from the state and metropolitan area. The day is comprised of hands-on design and building projects, team presentations, and awards showcasing the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
