Proud to see our civil engineering alumnus, Jesus Jimenez, receive this recognition. He has been an amazing mentor to young engineers and serves on the advisory board for our architectural engineering program (among other honors).

🏆 Meet our 2026 Distinguished Alumni honoree, Jesus Jimenez ’00, ’04!

A two-time Javelina engineering graduate, Jesus has turned his education and entrepreneurial spirit into a career that continues to create opportunities for others. Today, he serves as President and CEO of International Consulting Engineers (ICE), which has grown from a small local firm into a multi-office enterprise serving clients across the United States and internationally.

Through that success, Jesus has remained connected to Javelina Nation, working closely with the College of Engineering to employ fellow Javelina graduates and provide internship opportunities for current engineering students.

Please join us in celebrating Jesus and the impact he continues to make in his profession and for the next generation of Javelina engineers! 💙💛

🎟️ Celebrate with us at the 2026 Distinguished Alumni Awards on October 30!

We enjoyed connecting with alumni and other industry partners at CECON last week. Our department was honored to accept a plaque in memory of alumnus Vernon Wuensche (B.S.

Thank you to the donors and to the ASCE Texas Section for honoring Vernon as part of this conference.
