Professional Committees
The ASCE Board of Direction defined a profession as the pursuit of a learned art in a spirit of public service. It was further amplified that a profession is a calling in which special knowledge and skills are used in distinctly intellectual plane in the service of mankind, and in which the successful expression of creative ability and application of professional knowledge are the primary rewards. There is implied the application of the highest standards of excellence in the educational fields prerequisite to the calling, in the performance of services, and the ethical conducts of its members. Also implied is the conscious recognition of the profession's obligation to society to advance its standards and to prescribe the conduct of its members.

Technical Committees
Work of ASCE's Technical Activities Committee (TAC) facilitates development of technologies through Divisions and Councils representing about 200 technical committees that define the standards, direction, and focus of the profession.
As new developments occur in research and practice, ASCE's technical divisions and councils and their respective technical committees bring information to the membership through conferences and workshops and by publications such as manuals of practice, pre-standards, journal articles, and policy statements.
Work under the technical activities include more than 14 annual conferences and workshops, published 10 journals with over 575 articles. More than 5,000 ASCE members participate in these technical Committees. Their work addresses programmatic thrust areas as in Sustainable Built Environment, Sustainable Transportation, Extreme Environment and Information Technology.
