Celebrating National Engineering Month March 2025 with CUIIC
Advancing Innovation in Underground Infrastructure
This March, the engineering profession is opening its doors to show how engineers open doors—to new possibilities, new futures, and groundbreaking innovations. Engineers drive progress, solve complex challenges, and shape the infrastructure that keeps our world moving.
At the Canadian Underground Infrastructure Innovation Centre (CUIIC), we recognize the essential role engineers play in advancing underground infrastructure. From cutting-edge trenchless technologies to improving construction methods, engineers are at the forefront of developing practical, real-world solutions for underground infrastructure.
What is National Engineering Month?
National Engineering Month, presented by Engineers Canada, is Canada’s largest celebration of engineering excellence. It’s an annual campaign designed to inspire the next generation of engineers while recognizing the critical contributions engineers make to society. Throughout March 2025, organizations, industry leaders, and educators will highlight the importance of engineering through events, mentorship, and professional development opportunities.
