Over 30 technical and professional engineering associations throughout New York State will sponsor the event, which seeks to raise awareness of the contributions engineers make to our daily lives.

The event will last from 8 am to 5 pm and will include a number of seminars and exhibits, in addition to a luncheon at which Lieutenant Governer Mary Donohue will speak. Much of the event is free and open to the public, while the luncheon is $20 per person.
