Changing Climate
Adaptation to a changing climate involves research and its effects on the safety, health and welfare of the public as it interfaces with civil engineering infrastructure.
The Committee on Adaptation to a Changing Climate was formed in 2011 to evaluate the technical requirements and civil engineering challenges for adapting to a changing climate.
Sustainable development
ASCE civil engineering research supports key UN Sustainable Development Goals. Researchers and practicing civil engineers are actively seeking solutions to make our environment more resilient and sustainable for future generations.
