Paul Wasser Inducted into ACEC College of Fellows

Congratulations to Paul Wasser, Senior Associate Engineer based out of Boise, for being inducted into the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) College of Fellows at the 2026 ACEC Fall Conference in Phoenix. He is Schnabel’s second employee ever to receive this distinction, behind former Schnabel President Ray DeStephen – and the first member of the ACEC College of Fellows from Idaho (ACEC of Idaho).

“Being inducted into the ACEC College of Fellows offers me an additional opportunity to give back to a profession that has provided me with so many opportunities throughout my professional engineering career,” Paul said. “I am humbled to be recognized by so many of my peers for my past contributions to ACEC with this honor.”

The College of Fellows honors distinguished engineering leaders who have made significant contributions to the profession, their communities, and ACEC on a state and national level.

Paul has spent more than a decade shaping ACEC’s advocacy efforts at both the state and national levels, serving as President, Past President, and National Director of ACEC of Idaho, while also chairing the Government Affairs Committee and participating in the ACEC-ITD Liaison Committee with the Idaho Transportation Department.

Paul has focused on securing critical infrastructure funding to improve Idaho’s roads, bridges, and water systems while advocating at the national level for policies that strengthen the engineering industry, drive economic growth, and create opportunities for engineers.
