Asem American Society For Engineering Management

About ASEM The American Society for Engineering Management (ASEM) is a global professional society dedicated to the promotion and advancement of the engineering and technical management profession. Engineering Management, broadly defined, is the art and science of planning, organizing, allocating resources, and directing and controlling activities that have a technological or systems component. Engineers and other technical professionals, whose job requires them to assume management duties, must solve complex problems that require expertise and training in these principles. Who We Serve Although our society name specifically notes engineering, ASEM’s direction encompasses the broader challenges of management of professionals who work in complex, technical organizations involving “knowledge” workers. Broadly, ASEM members cover a wide range of management areas in science and technology. In addition to engineering, these fields encompass manufacturing / operations management, the natural sciences such as biology and chemistry, and information technology including areas such as computer science and information systems. Publications ASEM is the world leader in promoting and developing approaches and methods to improve the operational effectiveness and management of complex technical organizations. Our publications cover a wide spectrum of topics. 1 Engineering Management Journal: Top-tier refereed journal designed to provide practical, pertinent knowledge on the management of technology, technical professions, and technical organizations 2 Practice Periodical: Quarterly publication of articles applicable to working engineering managers 3 International Annual Conference Proceedings: Papers from the international annual conference 4 Engineering Management Body of Knowledge: Fundamental repository of concepts, principles, procedures, and practices in the field of engineering management 5 Engineering Management Handbook: Desk reference for the working engineering manager
