Designates August of each year as "Professional Engineers Month" in NJ and first Wednesday in August of each year as "Professional Engineering Day."
AJR 50 designates August each year as "Professional Engineers Month" in New Jersey and the first Wednesday in August as "Professional Engineering Day." It affects approximately 10,000 licensed professional engineers across the state who contribute to public safety, infrastructure, and economic growth through work in fields like construction, engineering services, and government. The resolution requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public recognition of engineers' roles in protecting public health, safety, and welfare. This is a ceremonial designation with no new legal requirements or funding.
