What is SE3?
|
The Structural Engineering Engagement and Equity (SE3) Project was established with the mission of improving engagement and equity in the structural engineering profession.
The project began in 2015 when SEAONC (Structural Engineers Association of Northern California) funded a committee to study engagement and equity in the structural engineering profession. In 2016, this group administered their first national survey of over 2,100 structural engineering professionals. Findings from this study included insight into why engineers leave the profession, the importance of mentorship, and the existence of a nuanced gender pay gap. The results of this study were used to develop the Best Practices Resource Guide - which you can find here on the Best Practices page. In mid-2017, the NCSEA SE3 Committee was created at the national level through NCSEA (National Council of Structural Engineers Associations) with the primary goal of administering the nationwide study of structural engineering professionals every two years. This biennial survey focuses on measuring engagement and equity with the goal of providing data and best practices to help ensure that every structural engineering professional has a positive experience within the profession. Today, the local SEAONC SE3 Committee provides local programming on engagement and equity in the structural engineering profession to our Northern California membership. We aim to advance the profession by engaging all structural engineers regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, immigration status, disability status, experience, or job title. We have affiliated groups in several major metropolitan areas. |
