Engineers Week - Coming Soon

Washington_the_surveyor "America's First Engineer" – Words that have been used to describe our nation's founding father and first president. 

Held annually—and very appropriately around the time of George Washington's birthday—Engineers Week is dedicated to ensuring a diverse and well-educated future engineering workforce. 

Aiming to encourage interest in engineering and technology careers among young students and to promote pre-college literacy in math and science, EWeek is among the oldest of America's professional outreach efforts. What’s more, the alliance works hard to raise public understanding and appreciation of engineering contributions to society.

Started in 1951, EWeek has spread its coalition to 75 engineering, professional and technical societies and more than 50 corporations and government agencies. As a strong supporter, we encourage our members to take an active part in Engineers Week.

  • Roughly 35% of firms report problems maintaining an adequate supply of workers. This phenomenon is global and impacts every industry. My desire for this blog is to share with you the many perspectives, causes, and solutions that are available to address this matter.
