Order of the Engineer Ring Ceremony

Last Friday December 6^th, Iron Range Engineering (IRE) had its first Order of the Engineer ring ceremony. It was a great day to celebrate the accomplishments of all the students, faculty, and everyone who’s had a positive impact on IRE. The first Order of the Engineer ring ceremony follows the recent ABET accreditation of IRE.  

There were many past students who came back to get their ring. Outside speakers Bradley Steinbrecher, Maggie Skelton, and Robb Bigelow talked about the history and the importance of the Order of the Engineer. Before being ABET accredited, IRE established an internal ring ceremony that the graduating seniors would participate in.

This was a great celebration of the current four graduating students and the accomplishments of the program. The ceremony and ring stand for the importance of the impacts that engineers can have on society.
