Purpose
-
Established in 1989 and made up of 21 professional and technical
engineering societies, WCES has a common goal of promoting engineering
and engineering in the community. The societies pool resources to:
Provide a vehicle of communication for promotion of the engineering
professions, i.e. celebrate Engineers Week with a banquet each February.
Provide a forum for defining tasks and goals for the common benefit
of all engineering societies, i.e. collectively serve our community's
outreach programs.
Promote a general awareness of engineers and engineering to the
Wichita and South Central Kansas area, i.e., present an annual
Engineering Service Award to a member of the WCES organizations.

Awards

WCES recognizes two members every year from our engineering
societies for their community service efforts. The Engineering
Service Award is open to all WCES society members while the
Outstanding Young Engineer Award requires the former and the
member to be under the age of thirty-five (35) with a maximum
of 10 years experience (post BS).
Both awards are presented at the annual Engineers Week Banquet,
hosted by the Engineering Council. Information regarding nomination
criteria, forms for nomination, and past winnners are listed
