The Society of Digital Engineering (SDE) is a global professional community for individuals interested in digital engineering, including those involved in digitising the built environment, either as designers, contractors, manufacturers, clients, facility managers or software vendors.
The SDE is committed to advancing digital engineering within our industry. Supporting professionals at every stage from students to industry leaders – and provides opportunities for recognition, development, and connection across the global built environment.
Global shifts in building information modelling and a focus on sustainability mean that professional recognition and registration for those working in digital engineering is more important than ever before and can be gained by joining the SDE.
