Message from the Chair
Dear Friends of Civil and Environmental Engineering,
This May, we celebrated the commencement of 134 undergraduate and 112 graduate students who joined the ranks of CEE ambassadors around the globe. Our students, faculty and staff continue to make impactful contributions in academics, research and service to our state and nation that propel our path to higher achievement. Our face-to-face and distance learning programs remain cutting-edge, and their excellence is reflected in the significant contributions of our alumni to communities around the globe.
Our students continue to excel in our hands-on learning programs and are recognized with internal and external awards, scholarships and fellowships. This year, CEE students participated in regional and national competitions that included the American Institute of Steel Construction Steel Bridge contest, The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Timber Bridge and Doghouse competitions and the American Water Works Association Water Filter contest, where they achieved high ratings. Our ASCE student chapter has been awarded the 2019 Certificate of Commendation by the organization, a distinction earned by just the top five percent of all the student groups in the nation.
Our faculty and staff are advancing research in our core areas of expertise, including resilient infrastructure systems, environmentally sustainable systems and intelligent transportation systems. We continue to provide support to our beloved city of Newark through collaborations on an integrated connected urban corridor as a pilot deployment of smart, connected transportation technology, as well as on a city-wide replacement of lead-containing water service lines from houses to the street.
I invite you to read about recent CEE highlights in our spring newsletter. As always, I sincerely appreciate and welcome your support of our department's initiatives.
Sincerely,
Taha F. Marhaba, P.E., F.ASCE
