Advising
Our student groups — a source of pride
The Civil and Environmental Engineering Department supports several student groups and has long recognized the important role that these organizations play in the professional development of young engineers. Each term, the student groups listed below provide numerous professional development opportunities, community service events, and social activities, all of which help to complement the department's formal academic program. Each group is advised by a civil or environmental engineering faculty member.
The ASCE Student Chapter, an active member of the campus community, has been recognized as the nation's most outstanding civil engineering student organization twice during the past decade and has won 1st Place Overall at ten of the last eleven ASCE Pacific Southwest Regional Conferences . The Society of Environmental Engineers Student Chapter has won the Air and Waste Management Association (AWMA) Outstanding Student Chapter Award (medium-size institution) the last three years.
