In the inaugural induction ceremony sponsored by Aera Energy, 70 inductees were welcomed into the Order of the Engineer May 23 at California State University-Bakersfield.

Aera employees, who are also engineers, placed the order’s stainless-steel rings on the hands of 68 engineering graduates, one CSUB faculty member and one Aera engineer and commended them on their accomplishments.

The order upholds devotion to the standards and dignity of the engineering profession.
