Graduating seniors and alumni are invited to the Order of the Engineer Ceremony, where inductees will receive a ring and take the Obligation of the Engineer. A dessert reception, hosted by the Engineering Alumni Network, will follow the ceremony.
The Order of the Engineer is the roster of engineers in the United States who have participated in an Engineers’ Ring Ceremony and who have publicly accepted the Obligation of an Engineer. The obligation is the formal statement of an engineer’s responsibilities to the public and to the profession and is publicly accepted during induction at a Ring Ceremony. It is symbolized by a steel band wear on the small finger of an engineer's working hand.
