2025 Order of the Engineer Ceremony - Hosted by Cobb GSPE
2025-02-12 18:00 - 20:00 | Kennesaw State University
We will have a social hour from 6 to 7 PM and the ceremony is at 7.
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 honoring of one’s pledge lifelong.

The Engineer’s Ring in the United States is a stainless steel ring, worn on the fifth finger of the working hand by engineers who have accepted the Obligation of an Engineer in a Ring Ceremony.

This Order of the Engineer ring ceremony is presented by Mr. Luther Cox. All professors (especially those at KSU) are invited to participate along with students and all engineers. The cost will be $20 for professors and fellow engineers and free to students.
