Eligibility

Students who are graduating with a B.Sc. in Engineering from the University of Alberta Winter and Spring terms are considered graduating engineers eligible for the Spring Iron Ring Ceremony.

This Camp information can be found at the Corporation of the Seven Wardens Website: www.ironring.ca.

For virtual ceremonies, ring sizing and certificate pickup will occur after the ceremony.
