Welcome to PSPE
Philadelphia Chapter
Pennsylvania Society of Professional Engineers
Philadelphia Chapter is dedicated to serving all licensed professional engineers and
our promotion of the publics health, safety and welfare.
We provide courses at our meetings and elsewhere to assist member and non-members to keep current in a variety of fields and meet requirements for
the mandated 24 PDH credits required by the State. We work to have our courses also accepted by other states including New York.
We assist professional engineers to network with others of their specialty and across specialties. We discuss and debate topics
of interest to engineers forwarding our unified or diverse findings to the State organization to share with our Legislators.
We are the leaders of several programs designed to encourage and prepare our youngest citizens to consider a career in engineering. We are a resource to assist young Engineers in
Training to apply for, study for, and become licensed Professional Engineers.
We are PSPE Philadelphia.
Come join us to further your profession
and further your career.

2018 NATIONAL ENGINEERS’ WEEK BANQUET
Hosted by the Philadelphia Chapter
Keynote Address
Two Centuries of Riding the Rails
Presented by
Patrick C. Morrison
Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania
Mr. Morrison's presentation is "Two Centuries of Riding the Rails," which is a nostalgic look at rail travel over nearly two hundred years. The program
starts by talking a look at how people traveled from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh in 1800, the 1830s, and the 1870s and beyond and how different travel was
in those three time periods. The last part of the program takes our guests through a brief history of rail travel in this part of the country from the
"golden age" of rail travel at the dawn of the 20th century through today.

What's Happening Elsewhere?
The Engineers' Club of Philadelphia maintains an inter-society calendar of events. To see what is happening in your specialty field of engineering,
go to http://engrclub.org/events/calendar.cfm.
You may also enhance your breadth of professional skill by attending a meeting of a technical society outside your specialty. Try to do this once each
month - bring along extra business cards to share with new contacts.
Enjoy the camaraderie of fellow engineers.
