Order of the Engineer
The Order of the Engineer is the roster of engineers in the United States who have participated in an Engineer's Ring Ceremony and who have publicly accepted the "Obligation of an Engineer." The Obligation is a formal statement of an engineer's responsibilities to the public and to the profession. The Ring Ceremony is the public induction of candidates into the Order of the Engineer, during which the engineer candidates formally accept the Obligation of an Engineer and receive a stainless steel ring to be worn as a symbol of the Obligation on the fifth finger of the working hand.
Any engineer is eligible to participate if he or she has graduated from an ABET-accredited engineering program or holds a license as a Professional Engineer. Students enrolled in ABET-accredited engineering degree programs are eligible if they are within two academic terms from graduation.
