Meet Spencer McFarlane, a third-year civil engineering student and Cubs fan from the Chicago metropolitan area!

This summer, Spencer interned as a Project Management Intern at PREMIER Design + Build Group. During his internship, he supported bid comparisons, scheduling, project portfolio development, and budgeting efforts. He also contributed to the Chicago Metra's South Water Street development at Millennium Station. This opportunity provided valuable hands-on experience with site walks, communication with subcontractors and government agencies, management of unforeseen conditions, and contract review and interpretation.

Through this experience, Spencer gained firsthand insight into how concepts taught in the Construction and Project Management course are applied in real-world construction projects.

Beyond the classroom, Spencer is actively involved in extracurricular activities as a member of the Bare Naked Statues a ca****la group. Alongside several fellow civil engineering students, he performs at events across campus and throughout the university community.

We're proud of Spencer's accomplishments and look forward to seeing what he does next!

Congratulations to the Class of 2029 for earning their hard hats by completing their semester-long Future Cities projects and presenting their work to the faculty. Our aspiring civil engineers will now wear their hard hats during hands-on learning, field trips, and extracurricular activities until their commencement in May 2029. We look forward to watching this cohort evolve from curious learners into confident leaders and engineers.

Today, we are spotlighting Emma Gorton, a fourth-year civil engineering student. In the past three summers, she had the opportunity to intern with various firms in the St. Louis region. This summer, she was the rotating intern at Horner & Shifrin, where she explored the various civil engineering disciplines.

During her internship, Emma had the chance to see how classroom concepts come to life in real projects. She learned what parts of the profession challenge and excite her most, discovered a strong interest in transportation and civil site work, and gained confidence by seeing how engineers analyze problems, develop solutions, and collaborate with clients. Just as importantly, she expanded her network of mentors—especially women in leadership—who helped her envision a future in the field where her strengths, personality, and goals truly fit.

Emma is also involved in Fraternity and Sorority Life at SLU and is a member of the ASCE SLU award-winning concrete bowling team.

Meet Midhad Hodzic, a civil engineering student from St. Louis graduating this May!

In the summer of 2025, Midhad interned with Lockton Companies in St. Louis, where his work focused on risk engineering - learning how construction risk is assessed, mitigated, and communicated to clients.

During his time at Lockton, Midhad applied civil engineering concepts such as safety protocols and risk analysis, interpreted structural and geotechnical reports, and worked with tools like Excel and ArcGIS to analyze real‑world exposures. From reviewing technical reports to understanding how coverage recommendations connect to day‑to‑day operations, the experience provided invaluable industry insight.

When reflecting on this internship Midhad said: “Looking back, I can confidently say I’ve grown a lot, both professionally and personally, over the course of the summer. This experience has solidified for me that the intersection of construction and business is where I want to be. I feel more confident in my path, and I know I’m in the right industry.”
