Congratulations to CEE Assistant Professor Sunni Ivey, one of three recipients of the 2024-25 Chancellor's Award for Advancing Institutional Excellence and Equity! This distinguished award includes a $10,000 grant to support her ongoing work advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice.

The University of California, Berkeley's Partners for Advanced Transportation Technology (PATH) has received a $10 million, six-year project grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Rural Autonomous Vehicle Program.

CEE Professors Sanjay Govindjee and Robert Taylor co-authored a new book, The Finite Element Method: Its Basis and Fundamentals, Eighth Edition. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the foundations of the finite element method, covering essential theory and practical examples in sufficient detail for readers to apply the knowledge to their own engineering challenges and understand more advanced applications. 

We are deeply saddened to announce the death of a great man, mentor, researcher, and teacher. Berkeley CEE Professor Emeritus Carl L. Monismith died on Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2025, in Missoula, Montana, at 98. Memorial services will be held this spring in California.

Join us on Friday, January 24th, from 9 am to 7 pm, for the James K. Mitchell Memorial Event at Clark Kerr Campus. We will celebrate the life, legacy, and impact of CEE Professor Emeritus James Mitchell, an educator, researcher, leader, and mentor at UC Berkeley and Virginia Tech.
