Dean's Program

Faculty who have not previously been members of ASEE (except as Student Members) can receive free basic membership for two full years through the Deans Program. Here's how it works:

The Dean pays the first year's basic dues of $69. The new member pays any division affiliation fees, depending on division choices, and any fees for extra publications. The basic dues for the second year are paid by ASEE.

ASEE appreciates the support of the schools and deans who have participated in the Deans Program by submitting membership applications for faculty members. The Society thanks these schools and individuals for their help in increasing membership and participation in ASEE.

Permanent Membership

ASEE has established the Permanent Member class of individual membership to enable Professional Members to sign up in advance for a lifetime membership by paying in advance for the number of years of ASEE membership required to meet the standard for Life Member status. The number of years needed will be determined by the ASEE Member Services department upon application or inquiry. Permanent Members are treated in all respects as Professional Members except that are exempt from ASEE membership dues for life. Permanent Members do pay annual fees for any optional publications and/or division affiliations that they may elect to retain. Permanent Members are converted to Life Member status, with the special privileges of that group, automatically in the month in which they attain the minimum qualifications for Life Member status.
