western regional younger member council

WRYMC is held annually in different locations in the Western United States for YMF officers and members. The conference brings together Regions 8 & 9 representing the states of California, Hawaii, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, and Western Canadian Provinces. The annual conference provides a great opportunity to network with other civil engineers, to participate in discussions with the ASCE leadership board, and to learn about activities one can bring to their local branch. 

Each year, ASCE hosts Multi-Region Leadership Conferences, in conjunction with the Workshop for Section and Branch Leaders and the Workshop for Student Chapter Leaders. Check out the previous years events below!
