2023 NAE National Meeting Engineering: Touching Every Corner of Our Lives February 9, 2023 Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering Irvine, CA
Engineering is all around us—from the cars we drive to the space shuttles that take us to the moon, from the lightbulbs that illuminate our world to the telescopes that help us see new worlds, from the appliances that cook our food to the crops that provide that food. Roads, bridges, buildings, cars, planes, phones, computers, appliances, medical equipment… the contributions—and the possibilities—of engineering are endless!
Engineering is present in every corner of our lives, contributing to our well-being, boosting our economy, and informing continued innovation.
The 2023 NAE National Meeting explores myriad ways engineering is improving our lives.

Established in 2001 by the NAE Council to recognize outstanding young engineers and showcase their work to wider audiences, the Gilbreth Lectures honor Lillian M. Gilbreth (1878–1972), a pioneer of industrial and management engineering and the first woman elected to the National Academy of Engineering (1965).
