Reston, Va. — The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) opened registration for the Society’s most ambitious event to date, ASCE2027: The Infrastructure and Engineering Experience, which will take place in Philadelphia, March 1-5, 2027. ASCE2027 is a multidisciplinary and cross-sector conference that brings together thought leaders from the entire infrastructure space, including ASCE’s Center for Technical Advancement, and each of ASCE's nine technical institutes, to connect and collaborate at a single event.
Engineering and infrastructure progress has never been possible in silos. ASCE2027 brings together members from each of the infrastructure disciplines under one roof, fostering collaboration among infrastructure professionals and providing a one-stop-shop for all focus areas in the civil engineering and construction community. ASCE members will be joined by public officials, business leaders and innovators to discuss emerging environmental, political, and technological challenges to the nation’s built environment and explore solutions to securing a stronger future.
“Civil engineers create the best outcomes for communities when they collaborate locally and globally, and ASCE2027 provides a groundbreaking space for professionals across each disciplines to congregate,” said Marsha Anderson Bomar, Ph.D., ASCE President. “The larger forum will also create more opportunities to hear from voices outside of our profession that can contextualize the needs of the communities we serve.”
Guest speakers, technical sessions, tours of infrastructure sites, and more will continue to be announced. Members of the media are encouraged to attend and will have opportunities to speak with members and speakers, depending on availability. If interested in attending, please contact Kevin Longley, ASCE Director of Media Relations and Public Affairs, at [email protected].
