Engineers are the artists that turn dreams into reality. So, today we encourage you, engineers to move forward boldly in the spirit of Francis Crowe, step aside for no other professional, be proud of your title of engineer. Take time to prepare for and become a registered professional engineer to highlight your pride in this profession. Take every step in your daily life to make others proud and to want to know you as an engineer. As members of this profession, engineers are expected to exhibit the highest standards of honesty and integrity.
Engineering has a direct and vital impact on the quality of life for all people.
Accordingly, the services provided by engineers require honesty, impartiality, fairness and equity, and must be dedicated to the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare. Engineers must perform under a standard of professional behavior that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct. In humility and with need for divine guidance, I make this pledge. Each engineer is then recognized with a certificate by discipline, and a medallion. Each Engineering Program may select a recipient of the Distinguished Engineer title to be inducted.
