Order of the Engineer: Upholding Devotion to the Standards and Dignity of the Engineering Profession
The Order of the Engineer was initiated in the United States to foster a spirit of pride and responsibility in the engineering profession, to bridge the gap between training and experience, and to present to the public a visible symbol identifying the engineer. The Order is not a membership organization; there are never any meetings to attend or dues to pay. Instead, the Order fosters a unity of purpose and the lifelong honoring of one’s pledge to "Uphold Devotion to the Standards and Dignity of the Engineering profession."
The first ceremony was held on June 4, 1970, at Cleveland State University. Since then, similar ceremonies have been held across the United States at which graduate and registered engineers are invited to accept the Obligation of the Engineer and a stainless steel ring. The ceremonies are conducted by Links (local sections) of the Order.
