Posted: Jul 14, 2021

The NDSU College of Engineering has announced the creation of the Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering. The new department was formed July 1 with the merging of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Construction Management and Engineering.

The Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering consists of the same academic programs housed in the previous departments, including civil engineering, environmental engineering, construction engineering, and construction management.

The goal of the new department is to organize faculty from closely aligned programs into a common department to better prepare students for the types of interdisciplinary interactions they will face on the job, while maintaining their important disciplinary understanding and methods.

MPC researchers from NDSU who are members of the new department include Ying Huang, Dinesh Katti, and Kalpana Katti.
