ICI Student Chapter
The Indian Concrete Institute (ICI) is one of the leading professional associations in India and caters to the professional needs of the individuals and organizations involved in the concrete construction industry. Being a non-profit organization, it is dedicated to disseminating knowledge on the science and technology of concrete, promoting concrete construction, and addressing the educational.
The genesis of ICI dates back to the year 1982, when the CSIR-Structural Engineering Research Institute (SERC) Chennai and Anna University jointly conducted an international seminar on Modern Concrete Construction Practices. The overwhelming response to the seminar prompted the organizers to establish ICI with around 500 members from five regional centers, including the Chennai Center. Since then, there has been no looking back, and ICI has grown in leaps and bounds. Today, ICI Chennai Centre (ICI-CC) has more than 800 individual members and 60+ organizational members.

SRM IGS Student Chapter
The Indian Geotechnical Society (IGS) mainly aims at promoting co-operation amongst engineers and scientists for the advancement and dissemination of knowledge in the fields of Soil Mechanics, Foundation Engineering, Soil Dynamics, Engineering Geology, Rock Mechanics and their practical applications. It provides a common forum for academicians, research workers, designers, construction engineers, equipment manufacturers and others interested in geotechnical activity. To promote closer interaction amongst geotechnical engineers spread all over the country, local chapters of the Society were introduced in 1968. Student chapters create the opportunity for the IGS members to reach out, communicate; and they are the catalyst for many advances in Geotechnical Engineering field. Participation in an IGS Student chapters brings manufacturers, engineers, researchers, professors, contractors, and designers together in an environment which directly influencing the students with better field expertise.

The Institution of Engineers (India)
The Institution of Engineers (India) [IEI] is the largest multi-disciplinary professional body of engineers, established in the year 1920 with its Headquarters located in Kolkata and incorporated under Royal Charter on 9th September, 1935 by the then His Majesty of King George V. The Institution has been serving the engineering fraternity for over a Century with its national and international presence through 125 Centres spread all over India, 6 Overseas Chapters, 7 Fora and an Organ namely Engineering Staff College of India (ESCI), Hyderabad. The Institution encompasses 15 engineering disciplines with a Corporate membership of over 2 lakhs. It promotes the advancement of engineering and their application among academicians, researchers, designers, construction engineers. IEI Local chapters of the Society were created to encourage closer communication among engineers dispersed around the nation and the chance to connect and communicate. The Indian Standard Institution (ISI), currently known as the Bureau of Indian Standards, was founded as a result of the pioneering work done by IEI in creating national standards to advance the nation’s industrial base (BIS). With the assistance of Springer Nature Pvt. Ltd., it publishes fifteen engineering specialties’ worth of peer-reviewed international journals in five Series on a regular basis.
