Younger Members Forum (YMF)

About Us

The ASCE Pittsburgh Younger Member Forum (YMF) provides an opportunity for young civil engineers to become familiar with the civil engineering community and get involved in ASCE early in their careers. The official age range is 35 and younger, but we welcome all those that are young at heart. The YMF allows younger engineers to build their professional network, give back to our communities, and interact socially. We strive to provide business contacts and create a bridge between the Student Chapters and the Section by encouraging students to join ASCE after graduation. In addition, the YMF provides younger members with recognition from their profession and their peers through awards, publication opportunities, and leadership positions.

Our Mission

The Pittsburgh ASCE YMF strives to foster an atmosphere of professional, social, and personal growth by affording young engineers opportunities for success in today's demanding engineering community.

Message from the President:

Welcome to ASCE Pittsburgh Younger Member’s Forum!

Welcome to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Pittsburgh Section Younger Member Forum (YMF)! We are a very involved, fun group of young professional engineers throughout the greater Pittsburgh area. We help to promote the civil engineering profession and how it can aid our community. One of my goals is to help everyone reconnect with friends and meet new colleagues alike through our various events. Whether your interests include social networking, professional development, or community service, we'll have something for you!

Please feel free to join us at any of our upcoming events, especially our monthly general body meeting typically held on the third Thursday of each month. This is a great way to hear about all our upcoming and recent events, discuss various rotating topics, and meet other young engineers. All upcoming events are included on the calendar page with more information. Also, please be sure to sign up for our email list to stay informed on all the events we do!

I look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events! We are always excited to see new and familiar faces! Please feel free to reach out to us should you have any questions.

 - Kaitie DeOre, YMF President 2023-2024
