This is an initiative to provide students within the Introduction to Civil Engineering course the opportunity to engage in hands-on, real-world learning experiences. This announcement coincides with the 25th anniversary of JNE's establishment of the Endowed Chair in Civil Engineering at McMaster's Faculty of Engineering.

In early November, JNE hosted a group of students from the McMaster University CIVENG2X03 program to tour 176 Shaw Street and the TCE fabrication shop. A unique aspect of the walkthrough included a visit to our fab shop, which provided the students with a clear and tangible view of the entire steel fabrication process from design to creation.

Representatives of the JNE Group of Companies attended the Specialty & Agro Chemicals America event — a forum that promotes chemical manufacturing, chemical technologies, and related chemical industry services that have specific applications for the agrochemical and specialty chemical markets — in Savannah, Georgia in July 2025.
