ASCE on Diversity
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) supports the proactive inclusion of talented civil engineers from diverse backgrounds and values their unique contributions, skill sets and broad professional experiences. In 2000, ASCE commissioned the Committee on Diversity and Women in Civil Engineering (CDWCE) to provide the Society with leadership in matters of diversity within the civil engineering community. Diversity related factors to be considered are identified, but not limited to, the Society's Public Policy 417 entitled Achieving Diversity and Equity, which includes race, ethnicity, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, and nationality. Diversity Programs
ASCE's diversity program efforts are designed to keep abreast of trends throughout the engineering profession, assess diversity trends within the civil engineering profession, develop solutions and programs to improve diversity relations, and actively promote inclusiveness within the Society and the profession. 2009 New Faces in Civil Engineering
