Code of Honor
College of Engineering students take pride in their work and hold themselves up to the highest standards and dignity of the profession. At the end of every academic term, UTEP engineering graduates are inducted to the Order of the Engineer in a solemn ceremony. Together the initiates recite their obligation, a code of honor, to the profession.
