The catastrophic landslide in Nepal this summer was initially believed to be caused by a 4.4-magnitude earthquake.

But there was no earthquake.

Rather, a massive cliffside glacial collapse generated the seismic energy, with the ice and rock gathering debris and cascading over 100km downstream to devastate communities along the river.

Ph.D. student Prashanna Mishra and Professor John van de Lindt reflect on the unique engineering lessons learned from this disaster in a new article:

We invited you home - and you showed up!!!

The first-ever Civil and Environmental Engineering Homecoming Picnic on Friday was a success (and the perfect weather was an unpaid actor)!

Thank you to our students, alumni, industry partners, faculty, and staff for a fantastic day of food, Walrus ice cream, prizes, and good vibes!

Ph.D. candidate Winnifred Agha represented Colorado State University at the 2026 American Society of Engineering Education conference over the summer.

Agha's work focuses on the experiences of early-career engineers through the lens of ethics and equity.

“As a student, this experience strengthened my confidence as a researcher, expanded my professional network, and deepened my commitment to advancing engineering education through research, collaboration, and scholarly engagement.”

She is grateful for funding from the CSU School of Sustainable Futures Diana Wall Sustainability Leadership Fellow Professional Development Award, and the Colorado State University Graduate School's GSC Conference Travel Grant.

Engineers often use their skills to impact the world around them. What if improving our world was part of the curriculum?

We now offer a Master of Engineering in Global Development and Humanitarian Engineering. This 30-credit program emphasizes civil, environmental, and systems engineering, with electives spanning economics, ecosystem science, sustainability, and international education.

Already working full-time? Starting in spring 2027, the degree will have a 100% online option! Earn your graduate degree without stalling your career progress.

Congratulations to Awetehagn Gebremariam for his $10,000 scholarship award from ASTM International! 🎉

Awet researches the material behavior and durability performance of concrete to advance more sustainable concrete infrastructure. He is specifically looking at chloride binding and transport in Portland-limestone cement systems.

Great work, Awet!!

Josh Kates pushed himself to think bigger as an undergraduate. Now, he's encouraging other engineering students to do the same.

Kates was the only graduate in the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering to earn the Mentored Research and Artistry Distinction (MRAD) this spring. He hopes to change that by making more engineering students aware of the award.

“MRAD pushed me to make the most of my time as an undergraduate. I never thought I’d get to work in an atomic physics lab, present research in Italy with the U.S. Air Force Academy, become a Goldwater Scholar, or have the honor of serving as Vice President of Engineering College Council and of CSU’s ASCE chapter.”
