Overview
ICE was founded on 2nd January 1818 in Kendal's Coffee House, Fleet Street, London becoming the world's first professional engineering body. It was an era of formal technical engineering education and self-improvement, which reflected the maturing of the engineering profession.
Nick will look at why ICE remains to this day one of the leading engineering bodies in the world, positively influencing the world around us.

Nick will detail some of the challenges facing our profession and how these are being addressed, looking towards the future of civil engineering and what role the industry and the Institution will play.
