Alumna and current postdoc Chelsea Preble (CE PhD '17) —with Julien Caubel, Troy Cados, and Professor Thomas Kirchstetter—created a network of custom-built, low-cost black carbon air pollution sensors throughout the community of West Oakland. Working with community partners, the team distributed 100 sensors across West Oakland for 100 days to better understand air quality patterns across the neighborhood.
Professor Allen Goldstein received the Yoram J. Kaufman Unselfish Cooperation in Research Award from the American Geophysical Union for advancing scientific understanding of Earth and its planetary health.
CEE Alumnus Gang Wang (CE PhD '05) won the 2018 Mao Yisheng Youth Award for his achievement in geotechnical earthquake engineering and soil dynamics.
This award, given once every two years, recognizes individuals under the age 45 who have made significant contributions in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. It is China's most recognized and most prestigious award in the field.
Dr. Wang is currently an Associate Professor at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
Adeleine Tran (CE BS '15, MS '17) is a recent recipient of the Women in Deep Foundations Professional Development Grant, given by the prestigious Deep Foundations Institute (DFI) of New Jersey.
The grant is presented to women who display excellence in professional achievement and who are active in promoting the geotechnical engineering profession.
ERG has an immediate opening for an analyst to perform research, analyses and technical writing related to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and helping our clients adapt to climate change through resiliency planning with a focus on shoreline and infrastructure planning. To add to our many climate projects at the local, state and national levels, we are currently building our capacity to support local and regional governments in California in the development of GHG inventories, vulnerability assessments, and climate mitigation and adaptation plans.
