Engineering is a demanding field that requires a broad knowledge base and combinations of skills to successfully practice as a professional. ASCE's "Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge for the 21st Century" and "The Vision for Civil Engineering in 2025" recognize leadership as one of the critical skills for civil engineers to develop - not only to increase the effectiveness of individuals and engineering organizations but also to position civil engineers as the lead on multi-disciplinary project teams, to regain leadership roles in public service agencies, and to lead decisions shaping sound public policy at the local, state, and national level.
