The 2013 ACEC Young Professional of the Year Award will be held in conjunction with the National Engineers Week Foundation’s New Faces of Engineering 2013 competition. The ACEC Young Professional of the Year is an ACEC program that is separate from the National Engineers Week Foundation’s New Faces of Engineering program. However, the five winners of the ACEC Young Professional of the Year Award will become ACEC’s nominees to the New Faces of Engineering competition. Hence, all nominees for the ACEC Young Professional of the Year Award must agree to participate in the New Faces of Engineering program. More information on National Engineers Week: www.eweek.org

The nomination form for the New Faces of Engineering 2013 program will also serve as the nomination form for the 2013 ACEC Young Professional of the Year Award.
The New Faces of Engineering strives to promote the accomplishments of young engineers by highlighting their engineering contributions and the resulting impact on society. The campaign is designed to enhance and improve the image of engineering by:

• Putting faces to what has often been referred to as “the stealth profession;”
• Showing a group of young, diverse and talented engineers, thereby portraying engineering as an exciting profession open to everyone;
• Providing both stimulation and incentive for college engineering students to explore the variety of career options available to them with their engineering degrees as well as encouraging high school students to study engineering in college.
• Help engineering students understand they are part of a global profession.
