Welcome to the Louisiana Section - ASCE Website

The Louisiana Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers was founded in 1914 and has since been in continuous operation. The Section consists of the entire state of Louisiana and it is divided into four branches that directly serve its more than 1000 members. They are the Acadiana Branch centered in Lafayette, the Baton Rouge Branch, the New Orleans Branch and the Shreveport Branch.

Sharing the national objective of the ASCE the Section strives for the advancement of the science and profession of civil engineering to enhance the welfare of humanity. This is accomplished principally through its service to — and leadership in –– Louisiana’s civil engineering community. In this pursuit, Section leaders remain open to the ideas of those who express interest (Home page).
