Student Activities

CE STUDENT COUNCIL

The CE Student Council was founded in Fall 2019 to represent the Civil Engineering student body and strengthen communication between students and faculty.

Our Goals

  1. To provide a forum for student expression, anonymous or otherwise.
  2. To serve as a liaison between the student body and faculty.
  3. To identify and help resolve issues affecting CE students.
  4. To communicate with faculty on matters that affect students, including curriculum changes and department policies.
  5. To promote good citizenship within the CE community.
  6. To foster school spirit, involvement, and a strong sense of community within the department.
  7. Students are elected to the Council for a full academic year.

Have a Concern, Question, or Suggestion?

The CE Student Council encourages students to share concerns, questions, suggestions, and other matters affecting their experience within the Civil Engineering Department. Students may communicate directly with any Council member or submit an issue through the CE Student Voice Form.

Submit to the CE Student Voice Form

Submissions may be made anonymously. The Council will review submissions and, when appropriate, work with faculty and department leadership to address them.

CE STUDENT HONOR SOCIETY

Chi Epsilon is the National Civil Engineering Honor Society. Founded in 1922, Chi Epsilon recognizes students and professionals who demonstrate the four traits the organization considers essential to a successful engineer: scholarship, character, practicality, and sociability.

Student eligibility is based in part on academic standing and class rank during the junior or senior year.

The CCNY Chapter of Chi Epsilon was founded in 1949 as the organization's 30th chapter. In addition to recognizing academic achievement, the chapter seeks to support the professional and academic development of Civil Engineering students through activities such as tutoring, resume and interview workshops, seminars, professional development opportunities, and field trips.


CE STUDENT CLUBS

Civil Engineering student organizations provide opportunities to apply classroom knowledge, develop technical and leadership skills, build professional networks, and connect with other students in the department.

Students at all levels are encouraged to get involved. You do not need to be a graduating senior or an upperclassman to meaningfully contribute to a student organization or competition team.

Benefits of participation may include hands-on technical experience, teamwork, leadership development, networking, competition experience, and the development of professional skills.]

Civil Engineering Organizations & Competition Teams

Students interested in joining an organization are encouraged to visit its webpage or contact its current student leadership for information about meetings, activities, and membership.


Additional information about the CE Student Council, Chi Epsilon, and Civil Engineering student organizations will be added as it becomes available.
