Collection Information

Abstract:

The records of the North Carolina State University Student Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) contain annual reports, membership rosters, photographs, publications produced by the chapter, and other general information on the activities of the chapter. The mission of the ASCE is to advance professional knowledge and improve the practice of civil engineering.

NC State's student chapter of the ASCE was established in or before 1948, giving civil engineering students the opportunity to become exposed to the professional world of civil engineering, while also helping to coordinate many of the activities going on within the Department of Civil Engineering (later, Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering) at NC State. NCSU's chapter was still active in 2008.
