Prevatt to shape building policy as Jefferson Science Fellow
For three years, University of Florida engineering professor David O. Prevatt, Ph.D., has been chewing on a stubborn problem: Why are bridges and buildings still succumbing to natural hazards when we have the knowledge to build resilient, hazard-resistant structures?
From space to emergency care, UF students push the boundaries of robotics
Under the guidance of Eric Du, Ph.D., a UF civil engineering professor, students are using advanced applications of ground robots, robotic arms, and drones to develop cutting-edge solutions with real-world impact.
UF researcher links Milton’s rapid intensification to warmer Gulf waters
Maitane Olabarrieta, Ph.D., CCS associate director and UF Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering professor, joined CNN to discuss the severe dangers posed by the storm and the link between its rapid intensification and warmer Gulf waters. She urged viewers to take this storm seriously and follow evacuation orders.
ESSIE and Kisinger Campo: Partners in Shaping the Next Generation of Civil Engineers
Kisinger Campo & Associates, Corp. came to campus in October to share real-world insights with graduate students in a finite element analysis class. Engaging with partner companies helps students connect their coursework to real-world applications and serves as a valuable talent pipeline for companies.
