SIU Civil Engineering Professional Advisory Board

To ensure that our students are gaining the skills, experience and expertise that will lead to long and productive careers and to make certain that our curriculum is consistent with the current industry trends and practices, the School of Civil, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering has organized a Professional Advisory Board. This group, comprised of alumni, professionals and educators from around the nation, gathers regularly on campus to meet with students and faculty, to evaluate capstone design projects and to make recommendations on the School’s course offerings, programs and facilities. The group not only assists the School, but also serves as valuable resources and contacts for our students.
