Every college or university that offers an Industrial Engineer degree program is eligible to have an IISE student chapter. Students need to send a formal application to the organization and once it is approved, they will be assigned with a chapter number and a formal recognition.

The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) is a professional organization for chemical engineers. [1] AIChE was established in 1908 to distinguish chemical engineers as professionals independent of chemists and mechanical engineers. Currently, AIChE has over 60,000 members from over 110 countries [2] or 40,000 members from 93 countries.
A year later, in 1967, the Board of Trustees changed the American Academy of Environmental Engineers from just a roster of certified engineers to an organization with its own rights, bylaws and officers. This new organization was charged with working cooperatively with the EEIB in the advancement of all aspects of environmental engineering.
The Institution of Engineers (India), the IEI, is a national organization for engineers in India. It is the world's largest multi-disciplinary engineering professional society. It has more than one million members in 15 engineering disciplines.
On March 4, 1868, by a vote of 17 to 4, the name was changed to "American Society of Civil Engineers", but it was not until April 17, 1877, that the lack of incorporation was discovered and the proper steps taken to remedy the defect. [8] The society was then chartered and incorporated in New York state. [11]
