Civil and Environmental Engineering
CEE's Katherine Flanigan works with Facilities and Lab Engineer Brian Belowich to help CEE students construct Little Free Libraries housing various products, including books, plants, and tools to monitor the local environment.
Civil and Environmental Engineering
Collaborating with industry leaders while combining infrastructure, data analysis, and computing expertise, CEE faculty are working on numerous digital twin projects. Their research aims to predict and prevent vehicle and equipment failures, maintain smart habitats in space, and optimize the safety, equity, and sustainability of various infrastructure systems.
Civil and Environmental Engineering
These fellowships are made possible by a grant from the Wimmer Family Foundation and are designed for junior faculty members interested in enhancing their teaching through concentrated work designing or re-designing a course, innovating new materials, or exploring a new pedagogical approach.
Civil and Environmental Engineering
As an instructor, she plans to help create a new generation of civil and environmental engineers who are able to draw upon tools and technologies from across engineering disciplines.
