Gourt Home::Gourt :: Engineering society
An engineering society is a professional organization for engineers of various disciplines. Some are umbrella type organisations which accept many different disciplines, while others are discipline specific. Many will give out professional qualifications, such as Chartered Engineer or similar. A very much non-comprehensive list of some engineering societies around the world is below.
Incomplete list of some engineering societies
Australia & Pacific
- Adelaide University Engineering Society student organisation
- Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand
- Canterbury University Engineering Society (ENSOC)
Canada
In Canada, the term 'Engineering Society' generally refers to organizations of engineering students as opposed to professional societies of engineers.
The Canadian Federation of Engineering Students (CFES), whose membership consists of most of the engineering societies from across Canada (see below), is the national association of undergraduate engineering student societies in Canada.
Canada also has many traditions related to the calling of an engineer. See Engineering traditions in Canada for more information.
