This resolution recognizes February 16 to 22, 2025, as Engineers Week 2025, highlighting the critical role engineers play in driving technological innovation and societal progress. The resolution, rooted in a tradition started by the National Society of Professional Engineers in 1951, acknowledges engineering's contributions across various fields such as artificial intelligence, clean energy, semiconductors, and biotechnology. It emphasizes the year's theme, "Design Your Future," which celebrates past engineering achievements and aims to inspire the next generation of engineers. The resolution underscores Engineers Week's broader goals of raising public awareness about engineers' positive contributions, promoting technical education, and encouraging youth to pursue engineering careers by increasing understanding and interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Additionally, the resolution recognizes that Engineers Week involves a coalition of over 50 engineering, education, cultural societies, corporations, and government agencies, and reaches thousands of schools, businesses, and community groups across the United States.
