Academy's five pillars of
society's future:

infrastructure
4. 	Energy
5. 	Sustainability

The OEA is an academy in every sense of the word - a place for engineers of all
backgrounds to engage in all types of practical, technical and leadership learning.
Professional development as leaders will be through the challenging concepts of
five core pillars influencing Ontario's society in the next generation:
1. Industry 4.0
2. Smart cities
3. Transportation and infrastructure
4. Energy
5. Sustainability
OSPE's Commitment to the Engineering Community
The need for an academy dedicated to the development of the engineering
community of Ontario was identified by OSPE's members. But the cause was
championed in particular by a key OSPE board member, vice-chair Tom Murad,
Ph.D., P.Eng., who envisioned the OEA. OSPE research and the first-hand
experience of so many engineers identified a gap between how engineers are
trained and what society needs from them. This gap is often referred to as the
difference between the IQ, intelligence quotient, and EQ, emotional quotient, of
the engineering profession.
"While academia does a good job of laying the theoretical foundation, because
of the constantly evolving nature of technology and how it relates to engineering,
there is a constant gap that has not been closed," notes Murad. "I've personally
spent the last decade of my career working on resolving this problem."
