As we watch wildfires in Los Angeles and around the world, McMaster civil engineering professor Sarah Dickson-Anderson explains how technological advances can help to manage these water-related risks.     Watch the full episode of the McMaster Dialogues on science, technology and digital cooperation: https://ow.ly/riQe50UQkk1 __ Faculty of Engineering - McMaster University

As part of a generation redefining possibilities, I've had a journey far from linear. Trading the concrete world of Civil Engineering for the abstract realm of technology was a leap of faith fueled by passion and intuition. Never a self-proclaimed techie, I find myself immersed in data-driven landscapes, navigating the complexities of LLMs. Growth, I've learned, is a dynamic process. It's less about predetermined paths and more about embracing the unexpected. While yesterday's experiences shape us, today's journey is where the magic happens. It's about finding joy in the unknown and a relentless pursuit of what's next. #careerjourney #techtransformation #lifelonglearner #unexpectedpath #passiondriven

We’d like to recognize class of 2022 graduate and Salutatorian Arly Perez-Morales for recently being awarded the Dr. Roberto S. Benson Cultural Value Leadership Scholarship. Now a junior civil engineering student at UTC, Arly discusses her interest in STEM and how she navigates being a first-generation college student in this article published by the university. We can’t wait to see how Arly and our other Mustangs continue to change the world! Read more below https://lnkd.in/e7efSuTP

"Beaming" (no pun intended). Proud advisor moment. I received this photo of two of my former advisees - now colleagues - Pang Weichiang (my former post-doc), professor at Clemson University, and Milad Roohi (former PhD student), assistant professor at Nebraska.

Hey everyone! So, I’ve been diving into the world of civil engineering and electrical power lately, and it’s pretty fascinating. It’s amazing to see how these two fields come together to create sustainable infrastructures that really make a difference in our communities. I love how they work hand in hand to power up innovation and build a brighter future for all of us! 👷🏾♂️🧑🏾💻👷🏾♂️ 📍 🏫Fourah Bay College, University of Sierra Leone.

In the eighth of the 20 People to Know in Transportation and Infrastructure, we talk with University of Pittsburgh professor Kent Harries, who though often tabbed as a local bridge expert, Kent Harries’ primary job, as he describes it, is to “share the critical role of training and preparing the next generation of infrastructure professionals to meet the challenges of the next generation of infrastructure.” https://lnkd.in/e2mzNztb

"Going to the scene of a major earthquake where there had been major loss of life, that really influenced me I think - the realisation that what I was doing could have severe consequences." As part of a series of stories profiling people of influence from around Beca, we asked Chief Structural Engineer Rob Jury ONZM to tell us about his career journey, and life outside of work.

📣🏗️ 🚧 👷 New research taking place at CIR aims to improve bridge construction in Texas📣🏗️ 🚧 👷 Dr. Kinsey Skillen, PhD, assistant professor in the Zachry Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Texas A&M University at Texas A&M University, was named Principal Investigator (PI) of the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) research project titled “Develop/Refine Design Provisions for Headed and Hooked Reinforcement.” The 42-month project, which received nearly $1 million in funding, is a joint effort between the Texas A&M Transportation Institute and the The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) exploring more efficient methods of anchoring steel reinforcement in bridge structure joints to enhance structural performance and accelerate construction timelines.

Ardurra’s Nina Berithova, P.E., and Sierra Lynn, EI, had the privilege of presenting at Lowry Elementary during the Great American Teach-In! They shared what it means to be a civil engineer, highlighting how our work is like solving a giant puzzle—combining creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving to deliver the best solutions while protecting people and nature. The Great American Teach-In, part of American Education Week, connects students with professionals to broaden their horizons and inspire future careers. We’re proud to be part of this impactful initiative, fostering curiosity and passion for engineering in young minds. #TeamArdurra #STEMEducation #GreatAmericanTeachIn #InspiringFutureEngineers
