NSBE has more than 30,000 members worldwide, 18 regional conferences, an annual international conference, an annual national convention, and offers multiple scholarships. NSBE also represents 310 collegiate student chapters, 99 pre-college programs, and 88 professional chapters with their 6,000 technical members, divided into 6 regions. A professional staff operates NSBE’s World Headquarters in Virginia.

NSBE's ultimate goal is to create a support group for black youth, students, and professionals in STEM.
