Order of the Engineer is not an organization but is a "fellowship of engineers trained in science and technology and dedicated to the teaching, administration or practice of their profession." Initiation into the Order includes adherence to a Creed and acceptance of a stainless steel ring. Approximately two weeks before graduation, the Dean's office will send out letters inviting prospective graduates to accept the "obligation of an engineer." The ceremony takes place before or after commencement activities. Families are invited to the presentation of the ring and the Certificate.
