Purpose and Background
What does the world expect from civil engineers and how can we prepare civil engineers to Engineer Tomorrow, starting today? Learn how responsible innovation is central to the future of civil engineering. Explore the tools and resources like the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge (CEBOK), available to guide civil engineers (students, academics, practitioners, employers, and owners) toward continual development and growth in our profession. Learn how ASCE is taking on this challenge and how you can take part in it.
