ASCE- University of Hawaii at Manoa Student Chapter

The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) student chapter at the University of Hawaii at Manoa is a proud organization geared towards promoting the civil engineering profession and providing a better understanding of the field outside of the classroom. From memorable socials and fundraisers to sharing hardships and triumphs in activities such as steel bridge and concrete canoe, the student ch

apter is ideal for meeting, as well as bonding with fellow aspiring civil engineers. Not only is the student chapter a prime source of developing new and lasting relationships, but it is also a gateway for expanding the student's network through frequent interactions with the ASCE Hawaii Section and the Young Member Forum (YMF). Inspirational speakers from an immense spectrum of engineering firms and companies also take part in our general meetings to further educate and enlighten students about the civil engineering world. Springtime of each year is the culmination of the efforts made through the concrete canoe, steel bridge, and many other programs that ASCE offers- The Pacific Southwest Conference (PSWC). At the PSWC, the student chapter competes on a regional level in a variety of engineering–related events. These include the Concrete Canoe, Steel Bridge, GeoWall, and Environmental Competitions. The upcoming PSWC will take place on April 9-11 at the University of Arizona, Tuscon. Through ASCE anything is possible. The knowledge and experience gained are empowering. The opportunities are endless.
