It's time to celebrate the power of engineering — and the people who make it possible. Engineers Week (EWeek) unites engineers, students, and communities across the nation to celebrate how engineering shapes our world.

NSPE proudly collaborates with DiscoverE and more than 70 engineering, education, and cultural organizations (as well as 50 corporations and agencies) to build awareness, spark curiosity, and celebrate the engineers who make a difference every day.

No matter where you are in your engineering journey — from student to seasoned professional — you have a role to play. Whether you host a classroom visit, volunteer with your state society, mentor a student, or share your engineering story online, your participation helps amplify the message that engineering changes lives. Join us in celebrating the people and possibilities that power tomorrow’s world.

2026 Engineers Week Theme:

MATHCOUNTS E-Week & Month

Engineers Week is now Engineers Month at MATHCOUNTS! With support from BAE Systems, we're posting an engineering-themed Problem of the Week on each Monday in February.
