Engineering isn't just about math and hard hats—it’s about creativity, social impact, and solving the world’s biggest problems!
Founded in 1951 by the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE), the week is celebrated annually during the week of George Washington’s birthday. While we know him as the first president, he is also considered the nation’s "first engineer" due to his work as a surveyor and his focus on infrastructure.
Celebrate with us by participating in these fun programs.
