Dr. Bing Chen has been appointed president of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE/SCGC) for 2024-25.
The Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) or La Société Canadienne de Génie Civil (SCGC), created to develop and maintain high standards of civil engineering practice in Canada and to enhance the public image of the civil engineering profession, is a not-for-profit learned society founded in 1887 as the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers.
With more than 5,000 members, the CSCE strives to grow and promote the civil profession in Canada and worldwide. It provides leadership in sustainability practices in civil engineering, including sub-disciplinary areas such as environmental, hydrotechnical, geotechnical, structures, construction and transportation, among others.
Dr. Chen has been a CSCE member for almost 20 years – as a student member, regular member and a fellow – and he is honoured to be elected as incoming president.
“I will do my best to serve in the new leadership role to continuously grow our society and Canadian civil engineering community in a more sustainable and resilient way in such a changing and challenging environment.” said Dr. Chen.
Dr. Chen will serve as president-elect until the CSCE Annual Conference in June 2024.
Congratulations Dr. Chen!
