National Engineers Week

The City of Valdosta is excited to participate in National Engineers Week, which is February 17-21, 2025. Engineers Week is a time for everyone to celebrate and wonder what the next big innovation will be. It's a call to recognize the people who create today's awe-inspiring wonders like cloud-busting skyscrapers and human travel to Mars. Our lives would be very different without daily marvels like clean drinking water, computers, and cars.

The 2024 year's theme is Creating the Future; Celebrate how engineers make a difference in our world . We hope to bring awareness to the many aspects of engineering, while also sharing helpful resources. Here are some of the activities going on in our community during National Engineers Week:
