In 1887, prominent Canadian Civil Engineers founded the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) as a learned society to enhance the high standards of civil engineering practice in Canada. It also aims to increase the public image of civil engineers among civilians.
CSCE promotes Civil Engineering by connecting professionals from academics, industries, institutions and public organizations in Canada and abroad.
Objectives
Set and maintain high professional standards and facilitate technical knowledge exchange among members.
Enhance the engineering profession’s usefulness and collaborate with educational and research institutions.
Encourage research on resource conservation and environmental preservation in civil engineering.
Support the CSCE’s objectives and cooperate with global engineering societies.
CSCE Calgary section - A local chapter
The CSCE National headquarter is in Montreal, Quebec, supports Technical Divisions, Committees, Regional Councils, Local Sections, and Student Chapters.
Technical Divisions and Committees organize conferences and publish state-of-the-art materials to keep members updated on technical advancements.
Local Sections across Canada offer regular technical programs and workshops, allowing members to stay current on Civil Engineering practices and provide networking opportunities.
Many universities with Civil Engineering programs have CSCE Student Chapters on campus.
The Calgary Section, one of the largest in Western Canada, provides regular technical programs, workshops, and seminars for the civil engineering community.
