Hi guys,

As you might have or seen heard from some emails or other posts, the Civil Engineering clubs are collectively holding an interest meeting today at 12:30pm in the Steinman Hall Exhibit Room. Since today is a thursday schedule, there are no classes during that time. We will present the activities we do or services we provide and its a good way to figure out if you want to be involved.

~Refreshments will be served~

See you there!

To City College of New York students and alumni,

Starting in the Fall 2016 semester, Grove School of Engineering students will have to start paying a $300/yr ($150/semester) "excellence fee" as a result of the recent budget cuts made to CCNY and CUNY. If you are in engineering you should have received a letter stating this information sent to you by Associate Dean Ardie Walser.

PETITION LINK: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rf38Mk5ULQNm7LnC6jD_tUTG1oiOlijsf4Iz2i5ZWz4/viewform

If you are against this policy, please sign this petition against the excellence fee. Allowing this to happen could possibly result in this fee being passed to departments other than engineering in the future. Please spread the word to the rest of your peers.

On Friday May 6, 2016, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Ardie Walser informed the engineering student body that a "Undergraduate Excellence Fee," of $150/semester for full time students, is being proposed to cover the budget shortfall in Grove of roughly $900,000, a portion of the $14.7 million a...

Interested in Sustainability and the Green Building Industry? Become LEED Accredited! I am hosting one final LEED Training Class this spring in NYC for those who missed out! Sign-up now!

When: May 7th 2016 – 2:00PM to 6:00 PM
Registration: http://leadinggreen.ca/nyc1
Where: CCNY - Steinman Hall – Room 161 - http://goo.gl/maps/oJ3lG

Opportunities are plentiful in the field of sustainable design and LEED is at its forefront.

LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is simply a green-rating point system, or a scorecard. The more energy efficient and sustainable a building is, the more points it will earn. To date, this course and its materials have proven to be instrumental in helping over 1500 students pass their respective exam at a 100% pass rate. This course is offered at a quarter of the price and time as the competition and is geared at allowing students to graduate with letters after their name!

Just as Buildings can be LEED certified, people in the sustainable construction industry can become LEED Professionals. The LEED Green Associate (GA) credential is the only entry level sustainability designation and shows employers and clients that you have certified knowledge in the green building industry. A new LEED rating system (v4) was introduced last month and this training course is one of the few that has been updated to teach the current rating system. This course meets the exam’s eligibility requirements and the USGBC charges a $200 fee for the actual exam which can be taken at any time at your nearest Prometric center.

Cost: $300 ($200 for full time students) - You can register via PayPal or RSVP your attendance by registering at the bottom of the page

Feel free to contact us at any time if you have any questions.
