What We Do Matters
Corporate Sustainability Report
Our MacCulture Principles reflect who we are, what we believe, where we’ve been and where we’re going. From critical projects to community outreach, they are at the heart of every decision we make — our gut check on the part we play in benefiting the world at large.
I charted a new path, traveling across seven seas alone. But from day one, I felt at home here at Burns & Mac, because of the courage and kindness of our people — and I have seen the impact we can make on the world.

A Student Success Laboratory:
Building for the Future
The Student Success Center at Kansas State University is an innovative space that helps our Burns & McDonnell interns expand their skill sets year-round. The students can tap into mentorship from our employee-owners, utilize corporate resources and grow into full-time positions after graduation. This head start on professional development is one way we're investing in the future of our firm and our community.
