The Safety Engineering, Risk, and Reliability Analysis Division (SER2AD) of ASME is now accepting applications for a new executive committee member as well as other critical volunteer leadership positions. Applicants should be active members of ASME and have some training and experience in the practice of disciplines related to the division’s focus area.

SER2AD is an active cross-cutting technical division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Our division organizes an annual track at ASME’s IMECE conference each November, publishes a quarterly newsletter that reaches over 3,000 division members, conducts a student safety innovation contest, organizes topical workshops, and coordinates initiatives with the Journal of Safety and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems.

The contributions of our volunteer leadership are critical to the success and relevance of the division. Please consider how you may be able to serve our profession through these activities. We are specifically recruiting for the 4th Vice Chair (Secretary) position, but additional positions are available including the newsletter editor, conference track organizer, student contest director, and others.
