ASEE offers over fifty Divisions and constituent committees that span a wide variety of interests and highlight the breadth of opportunities available to you as an ASEE member. Members are invited to affiliate with any of these special interest groups, and to take an active part in their work.
The professional interests of the Society are many and varied. Individual members may become members of and participate in the activities of any division they wish, of which no more than six (6) may have no annual dues associated with them.
All divisions are grouped into five Professional Interest Councils (PICs), each reporting to a chairman who is a member of the Board of Directors. The responsibilities of these units are:
