Founded on 2 January 1818, the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) is an independent professional association, headquartered in central London, representing civil engineers. About three quarters of ICE's 86,000 current members are British engineers,〔 but it also has members in more than 150 countries around the world. In November 2015, Sir John Armitt assumed office as the 151st President.〔() (accessed 13 November 2015)〕 ==Purpose== As a professional body, ICE is committed to support and promote professional learning (both to students and existing practitioners), managing professional ethics and safeguarding the status of engineers, and representing the interests of the profession in dealings with government, etc. It sets standards for membership of the body; works with industry and academia to progress engineering standards and advises on education and training curricula. Students pursuing recognised academic courses in civil engineering can join the ICE as student members - many undergraduate civil, structural and environmental degrees in the UK are "accredited by the ICE". After completing their studies, individuals can become graduate members – a step closer to achieving full Member status (MICE). The pinnacle of professional standing is to then be accepted as a Fellow (FICE). The ICE also administers 13 Associated Societies created at different times to support special interest groups within the civil engineering industry, some of which are British sections of international and/or European bodies.〔(Associated Societies ) (accessed: 19 July 2013)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Institution of Civil Engineers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
