Engineering Support for a Changing Force

As the premier military engineering society in the United States, SAME seeks to fulfill our mission by bringing value to our membership. In the rapidly changing military environment, it can be challenging keeping up with the needs of the military forces we serve and methods of meeting those needs. At the conference, leaders from all branches of military service and industry professionals will present information on the trends of contract procurement, new technical expertise, and future opportunities on the near horizon.
