About Us
“Engineering is the art of modelling materials we do not wholly understand, into shapes we cannot precisely analyse so as to withstand forces we cannot properly assess, in such a way that the public has no reason to suspect the extent of our ignorance.”
– Dr. AR Dykes
The American Society of Civil Engineers encourages young engineers, who are just starting their careers, to participate and to take advantage of networking opportunities in order to grow and develop as leaders in their communities.
The Redwood Empire Younger Member Forum (REB YMF), a branch of the San Francisco Section, serves the following counties in Northern California – Lake County, Mendocino County, Sonoma County, and Napa County. Throughout the year, we hold various social and professional events.
