engineering programs: the society's engineering programs division directly supports the society's purpose of advancing the science of engineering by producing technical content for publications, conferences and continuing education programs. The division consists of nine discipline specific institutes and eight technical divisions. The work of the division is accomplished by members participating in more than 700 technical committees.
