Introduction For
Practicing
Engineers
Welcome to DedicatedEngineers! We are a
charitable/educational non-profit dedicated to “making a difference,” both in
terms of advancing the engineering profession, as well as in helping
improve the world through the practice of engineering. In
carrying out our mission, we seek to act as a clearinghouse for providing
relevant information and resources of interest to the “professional”
audience (i.e., practicing engineers), including career resources,
recognition of professional accomplishments, and opportunities to "give
back" to your community/society and/or the engineering profession. Enjoy!

Promoting general public
awareness of engineering.

Identifying
opportunities for working professionals to: 1) give back to their
communities or society as a whole, 2) help in recruiting pre-college
