Verein Deutscher Ingenieure (
VDI) (English: Association of German Engineers) is an organization with over 150,000
engineers and natural scientists. More than 12,000 honorary experts process the latest findings every year to promote the technology location. Established in 1856, the VDI is today the largest engineering association in Western
Europe.
The role of the VDI in
Germany is comparable to that of the
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) in the
United States or
Engineers Australia (EA) in
Australia barring the broader field of work of the VDI. The VDI is not a union. The association promotes the advancement of technology and represents the interests of engineers and of engineering businesses in Germany.
