Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge for the 21st Century
Preparing the Civil Engineer for the Future

The manner in which civil engineering is practiced must change. That change is necessitated by such forces as globalization, sustainability requirements, emerging technology, and increased complexity with the corresponding need to identify, define, and solve problems at the boundaries of traditional disciplines. As always within the civil engineering profession, change must be accomplished mindful of the profession’s primary concern for protecting public safety, health, and welfare. The profession recognizes the need for change. For example, in June 2006, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) convened the Summit on the Future of Civil Engineering – 2025. This gathering of civil engineering and other leaders, including international participants, articulated a global vision for the future of civil engineering. The vision1 sees civil engineers as being entrusted by society as leaders in creating a sustainable world and enhancing the global
quality of life.
