Every year, the Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering Graduate Student Council hosts the CCEE Student Poster Competition and Research Showcase. Students are welcomed to present their research to a broad audience and spread their message, while also learning valuable presentation skills.

This year for the 11th annual competition, 50 research posters were presented on research ranging from intelligent infrastructure to water management, and much more in between.

In the competition, a panel of faculty and industry representatives judge the posters and award posters per focus area, totaling 18 separate awards. While hosted by the graduate council, the competition is open to all CCEE students working on research projects.
