Members
The people who make up the chapter
ACI Ottawa is a student chapter, which means it is rebuilt every year by whoever shows up. Here is how membership works and who is currently running it.
Who can join
Any student at the University of Ottawa, in any programme and any year. Civil engineering is the obvious route in, but the chapter is not restricted to it — architecture, materials science, environmental engineering, and business students have all found something useful here.
There is no prerequisite course and no expectation that you already know the material. Most people arrive at their first seminar knowing very little about concrete beyond that it is grey and it sets.
Industry professionals and alumni are welcome at chapter events too. If you want to speak, host a site visit, or mentor a competition team, get in touch rather than filling in the student membership form.
// How to join
-
Step 01
Fill in the membership form. It takes about a minute and asks for your name, programme, and year.
-
Step 02
Watch for the next seminar or site visit on the events page. Come to one before deciding whether this is for you.
-
Step 03
Put your name down for a competition team, a poster slot, or an executive role when nominations open.
This year’s executive
Who to talk to
The executive turns over each academic year. These are the people currently holding the roles — any of them can point you to the right place.
