Member Organizations, Firms to Carry Industry Torch During Engineers Week

State organizations and member firms throughout the ACEC federation will recognize the important history and future significance of engineers during this week’s National Engineers Week (February 19-25).

Council communications will highlight several Engineers Week activities including, ACEC Missouri coordinating the first ever “Engineering Day at the Missouri Capitol” to be held during Engineers Week on Wednesday February 22^nd. More than 65 engineering professionals are expected to attend.

The plan follows ACEC/MO adopting it’s 5-year strategic plan this past summer, with a primary focus to “Reinforce ACEC/MO as THE advocate for engineering firms in Missouri, not just for member companies, but for the entire Missouri engineering profession. The effort includes coordination with the Missouri Society of Professional Engineers (MSPE), American Public Works Association (APWA) and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), among others.

Other highlights include ACEC Indiana coordinating its annual National Engineers Week outreach presentation to showcase career opportunities in engineering in 100 classrooms throughout the state, and Houston-based Walter P Moore, commemorating Engineers Week with a series of new videos relating to the 2023 National Engineers Week theme “Creating the Future.”

Stay tuned to the Last Word Blog and other ACEC media for more exciting highlights of National Engineers Week commemorations.

All comments to blog posts will be moderated by ACEC staff.
