Message from the Chapter Chair

Your London Chapter Executive remains committed to supporting members, students, and the community through professional development, outreach, and volunteer initiatives.

This year, Chapter members proudly participated in the Fletcher Foundation / Adopt-a-Pond event in June 2026, helping to preserve and enhance our local environment. This annual volunteer effort reflects our commitment to community stewardship and provides an excellent opportunity for members to connect while making a positive impact.

Looking ahead, the Chapter will be participating in the Terry Fox Run on September 20, 2026, supporting cancer research and honouring Terry Fox's inspiring legacy of determination, courage, and hope. We encourage members, families, and friends to join us in this meaningful community event.

Our Professional Development Program continues to offer mentoring opportunities for aspiring and emerging engineering and applied science professionals. We welcome members interested in becoming mentors or mentees to get involved and benefit from the exchange of knowledge and experience.
