CI Student Days
ASCE’s Construction Institute (CI) has developed Student Days, a program specially designed to introduce civil engineering students to the wide variety of “real world” engineering opportunities after graduation – and let you experience some of those first-hand. CI works closely with ASCE local Sections and industry leaders to: bring students a program rich with interactive presentations on technical advancements in the field; provide you with job search “intel” as you network with corporate sponsors and recruiters; and get your feet dirty on an active project site.
Check out our sites for more information on our October Student Days events in New York and Texas. Invitations will come to your professors, so make sure you mention it to them.

ASCE Student Chapters: Unified, Diversified!
ASCE Sections and Branches are engaging members in diversity and inclusion through a variety of activities, and student members are getting in on the act, too!
Does your Student Chapter conduct activities on diversity awareness and inclusion or partner with student chapters of the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) or the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE)? If so, promoting campus activities is a great way to show what your chapter is doing and qualify it to win an award from ASCE’s Committee on Diversity and Women in Civil Engineering.
>>Tell us how your Student Chapter is addressing diversity awareness and inclusion! Or, if you’re just getting started and would like to host a diversity activity on your campus, ASCE will work with you to help engage your peers.
ASCE’s F.E. Exam Review Course - the Ultimate Preparation Tool for the F.E. Exam
The F.E. exam is tough. The best way to prepare for this day-long exam is to study the relevant materials and then Practice! Practice! Practice! ASCE's F.E. Refresher Course contains 12 modules, presented by a “virtual instructor” using interactive quizzes, audio, and animated slides. Listen and watch just as you would in the classroom. At the end of each section, test your skills. Time yourself on dynamically generated practice tests, which can be taken over and over again to sharpen test-taking skills right up to the exam. The practice tests are immediately scored so students can monitor their progress and measure their improvement. The course is available for a one-year subscription on both CD-Rom and Online.
