The Chinese Institute of Engineers (CIE) was first
founded in 1917 in the United
States by a group of able, dedicated
and far-sighted Chinese engineers who were graduated from American
colleges and were being trained in American railroads and industries.
Today, members of CIE-USA/GNYC come from very diverse engineering
disciplines : Telecommunication (Wireless Communication,
Microelectronics, Optical Networking, ATM and IP Data Networking), Civil
Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Pharmaceutical
industry, Software Engineering, and etc.
On July 15, 1953, the chapter in the United
States was reactivated as an independent entity by
itself known as CIE, New York.
It was registered in the State of New
York in 1963 as the Chinese Institute of
Engineers, New York , Inc., and as a nonprofit organization. It is
therefore tax-free. After the establishment of the National Council of
CIE-USA in 1986, the name of CIE, New York
was changed to the Greater New York Chapter of the Chinese Institute of
Engineers - USA
(CIE-USA/GNYC). CIE-USA celebrated its 80th anniversary during the 1997
annual convention in New Jersey.
The total membership of CIE-USA, with its six chapters, is now close to
5,000. To know more about the charter and history of CIE-USA/GNYC, please
see the articles in the Bylaws page and History page.
