AECOM is actively seeking a highly motivated Junior Transportation Analyst for employment in the San Francisco, CA office.
The Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at the University of Alabama look to fill two tenure-track positions in the area of Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering. Possible areas of expertise include but are not limited to: surface hydrology, extremes, climate change, remote sensing, computational hydrology, hydro-systems management, decision making under uncertainty and data analytics.
The cover story in Chemical and Engineering News (C&EN) features the research of Professors Allen Goldstein and William Nazaroff.
In the article, "What's in the air in our homes?," Goldstein and Nazaroff are among the atmospheric chemists who are moving indoors to analyze chemicals in the air we breathe—given that most people spend as much as 90% of their time indoors.
Indoor emissions come from many sources--stoves, cleaning products, furnishings, and even people.
Jack Moehle, the Ed and Diane Wilson Presidential Professor, is the recipient of Earthquake Engineering Research Institute's most prestigious award: the George W. Housner Medal.
The medal is awarded for extraordinary and lasting contributions to public earthquake safety through the development and application of earthquake hazard reduction practices and policies.

Applications are now being accepted for the 2020 NSF Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program on "Designing for Safety and Safety by Design". This eight-week summer program hosted at UC San Diego (La Jolla, CA) aims to immerse students in a highly interdisciplinary research environment in the field of engineered structures.
CEE graduate students Casey Finnerty and Gabriel Lobo were selected to attend Tsinghua University's first Student Forum on Climate Change.
Based on essays submitted by students from the 12 universities that form the Global Alliance of Universities on Climate (GAUC),Tsinghua selected (through a blind two-stage referee process) these two students.
Results from the Oliver Wyman Forum’s inaugural Urban Mobility Readiness Index: How Cities Rank on Mobility Ecosystem Development — a joint research effort with the Institute of Transportation Studies (ITS) at the University of California, Berkeley — were unveiled at the Oliver Wyman Forum: Data-driven Coalitions for Smart Mobility in Paris Nov. 26-27, 2019.
The NHERI SimCenter will host a workshop, “Simulation and Data Needs to Support Disaster Recovery Planning,” to engage stakeholders, users, and researchers to exchange ideas about simulation tools, data, and results needed for regional risk assessments. The workshop is on Jan. 30-31, 2020, 8:30-5:30 at UC Berkeley.
