Engineers Week was founded in the United States in 1951 by the National Society of Professional Engineers to raise public awareness of engineers’ positive contributions to our quality of life. By promoting a technical education in math and science, Engineers Week also encourages students to pursue a career in engineering. Today, Engineers Week is sponsored by a formal coalition of more than 70 engineering, education, and cultural societies; and more than 50 corporations and government agencies. Engineers Week reaches thousands of schools, businesses, and community groups across the United States.

The Hawaii Council of Engineering Societies (HCES) organizes local Engineers Week activities on O‘ahu annually.

Highlights of the Engineers Week Banquet include a guest speaker, the presentation of four prestigious engineering awards, and the installation of the 2025 HCES officers.
