ICE Northern Ireland's various committees and groups bring together like-minded people and give members the opportunity to increase their knowledge, get advice, and raise the profile and standard of civil engineering.
Regional committees and branches
ICE's work in Northern Ireland is carried out by the regional committee. It's made up of representatives throughout the region, and Graduates, Students and Apprentices committee members, and is supported by the Regional Support Team.
Committee members are volunteers and come from a range of backgrounds within the civil engineering profession.
Find out more about the committees and groups, including who's involved and how you can get in touch.
The Regional Committee is responsible for the work ICE does in Northern Ireland and meets six times a year.
It has appointed a Regional Executive Board (REB) to work with the regional director to plan its aims, activities, and budget.
