Find engineering news, conferences, codes and standards, career development, jobs, and much more. ASME is the center of engineering conversation.

promotes the art, science & practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe. ASME is a not-for-profit membership organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, career enrichment, and skills development across all engineering disciplines, toward a goal of helping the global engineering community develop solutions to benefit lives and livelihoods. Founded in 1880 by a small group of leading industrialists, ASME has grown through the decades to include more than 130,000 members in 151 countries. From college students and early-career engineers to project managers, corporate executives, researchers and academic leaders, ASME's members are as diverse as the engineering community itself. ASME serves this wide-ranging technical community through quality programs in continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations and other forms of outreach. To serve diverse global communities by advancing, disseminating and applying engineering knowledge for improving the quality of life; and communicating the excitement of engineering. Global Impact ASME seeks to deliver locally relevant engineering resources to advance public safety and quality of life throughout the world. ASME seeks to have a positive impact on the quality of life throughout the world by providing locally relevant standards, certification, technical information, networking, and advocacy for business, government, academia and practicing engineers. Workforce Development ASME is committed to fostering a broader, more competent, and more diverse engineering workforce to improve retention in the profession over all career stages. ASME aims to expand the capacity and effectiveness of the engineering workforce, promote the public good and increase public awareness of the value of the engineering profession. Real world challenges that face health care, transportation, space exploration, new product design and manufacture, and energy require interdisciplinary mechanical engineering approaches and perspectives. IMECE has a long-standing history within ASME and the mechanical engineering field. Historically, IMECE has been the first place that new innovation in mechanical engineering is presented. For example, in 1911, Willis Carrier presented what many scientists consider to be the most significant document on air conditioning. Since then, the conference has grown to include various audiences, and be the mark of innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration within the mechanical engineering field.
