Upcoming Events:

At the start of the 2026-27 academic year, we will hold our first general meeting! Watch for an email early in the year.

ND ASCE will also be at the Welcome Weekend College of Engineering Exploration Fair (Saturday, Aug. 22nd, 1 - 2:30 pm) and the Activities Fair, which is usually in the second or third week of the semester.

Recent Events:

ND ASCE had a great 2025-2026 school year! Throughout the year, ASCE has had several big events, including a field trip to Indianapolis, a tour of the new Shields Family Hall while it was under construction, more social activities, and a volunteer event!

Check out some of the highlights from this year!

Other Activities:

Guest Speakers

Each semester, ASCE invites a guest speaker to give a lecture at one of our general meetings. These lectures provide an insight into various civil engineering activities and allow our members to connect with professionals in the field. Last semester, we got to hear from several experienced engineers, including Kevin Walsh, a professor and structural engineer, and Akhtar Zaman, a geotechnical engineer!

Field Trips

We have the opportunity to tour many of the buildings on campus that are currently under construction, offering students a chance to see a construction site firsthand. This year, we toured the new Jack and Kathy Shields Family Hall and the South Dining Hall's renovation in the fall, and we're looking forward to more tours this semester!

Dinner with a Civil

A club favorite, Dinner with a Civil, encourages members to interact with civil engineering majors in other grades. Each group is organized to include at least one student from each year. Even better, dinner is on the house/club!

​Shear Studs

The club's athletic branch, the Shear Studs, has competed in various intramural sports, including basketball, volleyball, and floor hockey. Last year, we made it to the playoffs for both broomball and volleyball! Our motto is 'unCIVILized since 1852'. So far this academic year, we've competed in sand volleyball, 7-on-7 soccer, and broomball. Check out some of the highlights:
