On March 27 our Association turns 100 years old! An Act respecting the engineering profession was passed and assented on March 27, 1920 in the
Legislative of the Province of Manitoba. At that time, the Association of Professional Engineers of the Province of Manitoba became a body, politic and
corporate, with perpetual succession and common seal. Our first Association President was M.A. Lyons and 168 engineers were registered with the Association.
Today, Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba has grown to 8,815 registered practitioners. To learn more about the history of the Association, see the
full news story.
During the first week of March, over one thousand students from Winnipeg and surrounding areas put their engineering skills to the test in the
