Dear College of Engineering December Graduates (and professional engineering community members),

UAA's College of Engineering is pleased to invite you to attend this year's Order of the Engineerceremony, which we will be conducting as part of a celebration of our December Engineering graduates on Friday, December 1, 2017, in the second floor Solarium of the Engineering & Industry Building. The ceremony will begin at 11 am, to be followed by a small reception. At that time, you, and any of your colleagues who are engineers, but have never been inducted, are invited to be inducted into the Order of the Engineer.

The Order of the Engineer is an organization which seeks to promote professionalism in engineering. It is founded on the following two principles:

1.The primary purpose of engineering is service to the public, and

2.All members of the engineering profession share a common bond.

Each person who accepts the Obligation of the Engineer at the ceremony receives a stainless steel ring and a certificate. The ring is worn on the outside finger of your dominant hand, to always remind you to maintain the standards of engineering. There is a one-time fee associated with the ceremony and lifetime membership in the Order of the Engineer, at a total cost of $15.

If you are interested in being inducted, please fill out the attached application form and bring it with payment (cash or check) in a sealed envelope to Zlata Lokteva at ECB 208B. There will be ring sizes available to try on when you turn in the form.

If you have further questions about the Order of the Engineer, please visit their website:
