Welcome to the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering

The Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) is a not-for-profit learned society created to develop and maintain high standards of civil engineering practice in Canada and to enhance the public image of the civil engineering profession.
CSCE was established in 1887, making it one of the longest running professional associations in Canada. CSCE is a leader in preserving historical civil engineering achievements in Canada.
CSCE strives to provide members enhanced networking opportunities at the local and national level, industry training via webinars, and its annual national conference.
