Engineers: Turning Ideas Into Reality

Introduce Kids to Civil Engineering During EWeek

Join with ASCE and other engineering organizations and societies as we celebrate National Engineers Week 2011, Feb. 20-26. This year, Engineers Week is celebrating its 60th anniversary, having helped inspire three generations of children and teens. As in years past, this high-profile celebration gives engineers from all disciplines an opportunity to showcase their love of engineering and highlight the vast contribution they make to a quality of life we all enjoy.

If you’re a parent or teacher, watch for an Engineers Week event and introduce the children you know to engineering.
Are you an engineer who might be interested in volunteering? EWeek is a great opportunity to reach out and share what you do. Show children and the world what a difference engineers can make! There are plenty of ways to take part. Clink on the links below for ideas from ASCE:
