Project Manager Essentials for Professional Engineers

When leading an Engineering Project, whether it be Process, Product or Service, elaborate software and checklists alone do not ensure projects will achieve the desired outcomes. These are merely the mechanics. The true essence of Engineering projects is aligning the whole organization to the corporate strategy. There are fundamental project management principles that are critical to success, particularly for Professional Engineers.

The Dig-Down at Union Station - Structural Innovation and Heritage Conservation

Union Station, which opened in 1927, is Canada’s busiest transit hub. Until the 1970s, the station served as a primary gateway for immigrants arriving in Toronto. Its role shifted with the introduction of GO Transit, Ontario’s commuter train network, which has seen significant growth over the years. In 2006, the City of Toronto initiated a revitalization plan to expand and modernize the station, anticipating an increase in annual passengers from 70 million to a projected 90 million by 2036.
