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
