The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Chapter at the University of Central Florida is the largest engineering organization on campus. Our main goal is to ensure that our club properly prepares students for their professional careers. In order to further develop our members we have several events and competitions we participate in. Our biggest event is the ASCE annual student conference where we compete against other southeastern engineering schools for a chance to go to the national level. Last year we placed 5th overall at the regional conference and are striving for first place this year. As Civil Engineers we understand that our mission is to make the world a better place. Last year alone our members logged over 750 community service hours! This year we plan to continue with our high level of community involvement.

Our club meetings will be every other Wednesday in MAP 359 at 7:30pm. At our meetings we invite industry professionals to speak to students about engineering in the workforce, internships, resume building, networking, and much more. Don't forget as always free pizza!

To become an official member please make sure to pay $30 either during a meeting or turn in dues to an officer in the ASCE office. Membership includes an ASCE T-shirt, exclusive scholarships and internship opportunities, as well as access to attend the Southeastern Conference.

FE Manuals are available for $10. Please come by the ASCE office to purchase one.

The Purpose of the Central Florida Student Chapter is to branch the understanding gap between perspectives and methods as it is seen and performed in the industry, compared to how learned in the collegiate / academic world. By doing this we will be preparing the up-and-coming engineers to a more realistic understanding of how the industry operates while leaning how to maximize the knowledge/concepts learned in the classroom. ABC Through various events such as Student competitions, monthly networking events, jobsite visits along with potential scholarships & Fellowships, just to name a few, allow great exposure for us students to actively participate with alumni, leaders in the industry, faculty as well as many more.

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) is a nonprofit technical and educational society organized in 1904 and is one of the world's leading authorities on concrete technology. ACI is a forum for the discussion of all matters related to concrete and the development of solutions to problems. ACI conducts this forum through conventions and meetings; the ACI Structural Journal, the ACI Materials Journal, Concrete International, and technical publications; chapter activities; and technical committee work. As its chartered objective states, its purpose is "to provide a comradeship in finding the best ways to do concrete work of all kinds and in spreading that knowledge." Please visit the chapter web page for more information at http://www.concrete.org/CHAPTERS/chap.asp?cid=c036.

The Society of Environmental Engineers (SEE) is an organization that exists to promote awareness of the disciplines of environmental engineering. SEE is affiliated with the Water Environment Federation, Air and Waste Management Association, American Water Works Association, and the American Academy of Environmental Engineers. The overall goal is to provide students with the opportunity to be involved in campus activities, facilitate networking opportunities within the local engineering community, and increase awareness of environmental engineering at UCF. Please visit the chapter web page for more information at http://clubs.cecs.ucf.edu/see/.

Established in 2007, we are one of the student chapters of Engineers Without Borders USA. Our mission is to partner with disadvantaged communities to improve their quality of life through implementation of environmentally sound and economically sustainable engineering projects, while developing internationally responsible engineering students. Please visit the chapter web page for more information at http://ewbucf.org/.

The Pile Driving Contractors Association (PDCA) is an organization of pile driving contractors that advocates the increased use of driven piles for deep foundations and earth retention systems.
