The CSCE of the present is the result of a merger of two organizations that occurred 30 years ago. The Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1884, while the Connecticut Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1919. In 1958, the Section had 523 members. In 1955 (the nearest comparable year for reliable numbers), the Society had 1,033 members. The two organizations met separately until they merged in 1981, by mutual vote of membership, to become the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers Section of American Society of Civil Engineers or CSCE. As of May 13, 2013, we represent 1,502 civil engineers statewide.

Proposed Changes to CSCE's Constitution & Bylaws

Thank you to all who returned an orange postcard ballot. The Board of Directors of the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers (CSCE) Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) proposed updates and changes to the Constitution and Bylaws for CSCE. The changes are predominantly to recognize electronic business and meeting practices used in business today as well as to more closely align the structure of the governing documents with those of ASCE. The changes were prepared by some of the Past Presidents of CSCE and retain the historical perspective of the independent CSCE before the merger with ASCE. You may review the existing Constitution & Bylaws from 1999 and the proposed changes by clicking on the links below.

Civil Engineers make a Difference!




In 2011, CSCE established a public awareness campaign to promote the importance of infrastructure renewal and the Civil Engineering profession with support from an ASCE State Public Affairs Grant (SPAG). This campaign consisted of renting 10 billboards located throughout Connecticut for a one-month period of time.
