About Winnipeg
Dear colleagues and friends,
On behalf of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) and the Local Organizing Committee, I am pleased to invite you to attend the 2025 CSCE Annual Conference to be held at the Fairmont Hotel in Winnipeg on May 28-30, 2025. Our aging infrastructure, along with the need for sustainable and resilient solutions, is placing an increasing demand on civil engineers in Canada. The conference will provide a great opportunity to bring together academics, researchers, and practitioners from around the world in various fields of civil engineering, to present, review and debate recent achievements and innovative solutions as well as address and define the challenges of the present and the future, as we come together to explore the theme of "Empowering communities through sustainable and resilient engineering solutions."
While we invite presentations in all areas of Civil Engineering, the 2025 Annual Conference will feature specialty conferences in Cold Regions, Environmental Engineering, Hydro Technical Engineering, Materials and Mechanics Engineering, Structural Engineering, and Transportation Engineering. Several short courses will be offered in connection with the conference. We also invite industry to take advantage of the exhibition facilities available during the conference.
The City of Winnipeg, Manitoba, is well known as “the cultural cradle of Canada”, and the home to a very diverse population, the world-class Canadian Museum for Human Rights, the world’s most comprehensive Arctic species exhibit, the Forks, the historical Exchange District, the French-flavored St. Boniface and many other attractions. The Fairmont Hotel is in the heart of downtown Winnipeg, in easy walking distance from these attractions.
A variety of activities are being planned to entertain conference delegates and their guest family and friends. I encourage you to make Winnipeg a destination of yours in 2025.
We look forward to welcoming you and extending our great Prairie hospitality to you.
