American Society of Naval Engineers
Membership
| Code of Ethics |
Join the American Society of Naval Engineers and experience the essential tools, exceptional learning and networking opportunities that enhance every aspect of your professional development. No matter what your interest is in the naval engineering community – academic, military, civilian, professional or personal – you need a reliable source for technical knowledge, industry information, professional development and networking opportunities.
Today, ASNE is the leading professional engineering society representing scientists, engineers, and allied professionals who conceive, design, develop, test, construct, outfit, operate and maintain naval surface, subsurface and air vehicles and their associated systems and subsystems. ASNE also serves the educators who train the professionals, researchers who renew the technology and innovators who bring forth new concepts.
ASNE offers numerous ways to connect with your profession:
Discover the vast array and convenience of resources at your fingertips, including:
All ASNE members will receive a subscription to the prestigious Naval Engineers Journal(NEJ). The NEJ is a quarterly, peer reviewed technical journal that presents the latest in research and technology. It is a leading source of information on the full range of naval engineering subjects and provides a prominent forum for authors to publish their work for further use by the profession.
Marine Link
A members-only newsletter that updates members on Society activities, industry news and events sent to members electronically on a daily basis.
Members have access to back-issues of the Naval Engineers Journal and past symposia proceedings. The ASNE website is currently undergoing a complete redesign that will feature sub-specialty interest sections and listservs.
All ASNE members have access to the Society’s online job database. It is an easy, one stop site for employers and employees interested specifically in naval engineering fields and specialties.
Companies can either post their job vacancies, or they can review prospective employees’ resumes. The site also presents employees with the option to create their own job bank, post a resume or to search for potential job opportunities in their desired field. ASNE encourages student members to post their resumes, providing a valuable resource for internships and entry-level position fulfillment.
Exceptional Learning Experiences
The Society provides members with a host of exciting opportunities to broaden professional knowledge:
National Symposia
ASNE sponsors numerous technical symposia providing its members with an opportunity to gain exposure to distinguished naval engineering professionals and to enhance their knowledge base. Topics can include, but are not limited to combat systems, logistics, ship design, fleet maintenance, naval aviation, human systems engineering, electronic engineering, the environment and other important issues.
ASNE Day
ASNE Day is the Society’s annual conference. Every spring the event draws engineering professionals to Washington, DC to partake in an array of presentations, discussions of technical innovations, industry briefings, professional development and networking opportunities and Society business.
The program also includes an exhibit hall, which provides attendees with a chance to meet with industry and government representatives and to explore the various services, equipment and techniques relating to the field.
Vibrant Communities
ASNE’s Sections provide members with a professional development and networking opportunity at the local level. Many of the Society’s sections offer informal monthly meetings providing a venue for presentations and networking opportunities relevant to local/regional activities and organizations.
Every year ASNE presents the following coveted achievement awards honoring individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the naval engineering field.
Student & Young Engineer Support
One of the Society’s priorities is to support students considering a career in naval engineering or currently enrolled in an academic program.
Since ASNE's Schoarlship Program was inaugurated in 1979, the Society has awarded 421 undergraduate and graduate students with scholarship support.
ASNE's Scholarship Program was established to improve and promote the profession of naval engineering. The Society’s goal is to encourage college students to enter the field of naval engineering and to provide valuable support to naval engineers seeking advanced education in the field.
ASNE and SNAME Membership
Students who join ASNE will automatically receive a membership to the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME). The dual membership creates an opportunity for those individuals interested in the engineering world to have access to more information pertaining to upcoming events and current field advancements and knowledge. The membership is valid as long as they maintain their Student Member status with ASNE.
