At the University of Canterbury Civil and Environmental Engineering Society we strive to foster a thriving community for students by connecting them with industry professionals, supporting their academic growth, and cultivating a collaborative and inclusive environment. We are dedicated to preparing future engineers to excel both academically and professionally while building lasting networks and friendships.
The University of Canterbury Civil & Environmental Engineering Society was officially established in 2022, though we began as the Civil & Natural Engineering Society. Following the department’s modernization and name change, we rebranded to reflect this new identity. Each year, our club continues to grow—hosting more events, expanding our resources, and strengthening our connection between students and industry professionals. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead and remain committed to supporting our members’ professional and social development.
Our industry events give engineering students the opportunity to connect with professionals and gain a deeper understanding of how engineering is applied in the workforce.
In 2026, the club aims to establish new facilities to support students and their studies — including tutoring services and an end-of-year pitching project.
We provide a range of social experiences to help students connect with one another and take a break from their studies.
