These aspirations are best expressed in the Engineering Code of Ethics. To aid in furthering these goals, the ASCE sponsors conferences and professional education courses, consults with the government on CE related technical issues, conducts public awareness programs, and maintains the largest CE publishing operation in the world today. In addition, there are over 500 technical and management committees working to expand the theories and improve the practice of the CE profession. The student chapters of the ASCE provide students studying civil engineering with activities to further their practical knowledge of the field through activities such as field trips, guest speakers, and annual conferences. Through these activities, future CE professionals are given the opportunity to experience the practical application of their studies and meet practicing professional engineers.
Typical membership begins at the student chapter level.
