The Engineering Institute of Canada (EIC) (French: l'Institut canadien des ingénieurs; ICI) is a federation of twelve engineering societies based in Canada,[1] covering a broad range of engineering branches, and with a history going back to 1887.[2][3][4][5] First known as the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers, it became the first national professional engineering society in Canada.[6]

History

The organisation was founded in 1887 under the name Canadian Society of Civil Engineers (not to be confused with the more recent Canadian Society for Civil Engineering). Co-founder Thomas C. Keefer was elected as the first president. Walter Shanly, who helped with the incorporation, became one of the first vice-presidents, together with Casimir Gzowski and John Kennedy. And Henry T. Bovey was the first secretary and treasurer. In 1918 the society was renamed Engineering Institute of Canada with the goal to represent all engineering branches. Later the organisation converted into a federation of more independent member societies, starting with the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering in 1970.[3][4][5]

Member societies

The twelve member societies of the Engineering Institute of Canada are:[1]

  • IEEE Canada.[7] The Canadian section of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and a member society of the EIC "for the technical fields of electrical, electronics, and computer engineering".[8]
  • Canadian Dam Association[9]
  • Canadian Geotechnical Society (CGS).[10] Founded in January 1972 as a member society of the EIC but with a history going back to 1946 when the "Associate Committee on Soil and Snow Mechanics" was created by the National Research Council of Canada.[5][11]
  • Canadian Medical and Biological Engineering Society (CMBES)[12]
  • Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS)[13]
  • Canadian Society for Bioengineering[14]
  • Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE). The CSCE, founded in 1887 and renamed in 1918, was re-established in June 1972 as a member society of the EIC under a slightly different name.[5]
  • Canadian Society of Senior Engineers (CSSE)[15]
  • Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering[16]
  • Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering (CSME).[17] Founded in January 1970 as first member society of the EIC.[5]
  • Canadian Society for Engineering Management[18]
  • IISE Canadian Region[19]

Fellows

{{See also|List of Fellows of the Engineering Institute of Canada|Category:Fellows of the Engineering Institute of Canada}}

Starting in 1963, the Engineering Institute of Canada (EIC) has yearly elected some members to the level of Fellow, to recognize "their excellence in engineering" and "their services to the profession and to society".[20] Initially, Fellows were members of the EIC with the annual number elected varying between one (1967) and seventy-eight (1980). More recently,{{When|date=March 2011}} they are members of their nominating EIC member society with a maximum of twenty elected annually.[20]
