San Joaquin Chapter
President is serving as the Chair of the
San Joaquin Engineers Council (SJEC) and they have been meeting
regularly to prepare for the
Engineering activities in February and during the Engineer’s
Week. They have contacted a number of middle schools to participate
in the MATHCOUNTS event at the
University of Pacific.
The event is scheduled for February 20th. The deadline for
schools to submit their teams is
February 5,
2010. Please visit
http://www.mathcounts-ca.org/sanjoaquin.htm for more
information and how to contact the coordinators.
The scholarship
committee of the San Joaquin Engineers Council is also evaluating
applications from
graduating high school student to select a number of qualified
students and give them scholarships for choosing engineering as their
major and attending engineering schools. Last year the SJEC provided
7 scholarships for a total of $9,000. We are hoping to raise more
funds and provide even more scholarships this year. The Engineering
Scholarship Banquet is scheduled for
February 18,
2010 at the UOP Grace Covell hall. Your participation is requested
and your scholarship donations are appreciated. Please visit the SJEC
site
http://sjec-ca.org .
The SJEC is also
selecting a registered engineer for the “San Joaquin’s Engineer of the
Year” award and a non registered engineer for the “Engineering
Professional Distinguished Service” award. Each candidate is
recommended by an
engineering society or professional organization and is
selected from a list of highly qualified candidates. The Criteria for
the selection is their years of service in their profession, their
dedication to their field, their involvement with the
professional
organizations and their contributions to the community. The
heartfelt speech given by the selected candidates for the scholarships
and the “Engineer of the Year” has always been the highlight of the
evening.

scholarship funds or attending the awards banquet can contact Nader
