University of Iowa Civil Engineering Professor Craig Just has worked with wastewater and treatment solutions for over 30 years. His most recent project, a small-scale wastewater treatment solution, is currently being evaluated against federal regulations.

Kaleb Young, a University of Iowa PhD student in civil and environmental engineering, working to improve flood forecasting for the state of Iowa, is among 10 engineering students and postdocs highlighted in the Dare to Discover campaign.

Vanessa Robledo, a second-year PhD student in civil and environmental engineering (CEE), is helping improve the Iowa Flood Center’s abilities to better forecast flash flood events. Building on her master's studies in meteorology from Medellin, Colombia, her research focuses on improving methods for predicting weather patterns to enhance flood forecasting.

University of Iowa students from various humanities backgrounds collaborated with researchers in engineering and environmental studies to promote education and sustainable practices around nitrogen runoff in Iowa’s watersheds as part of the NSF BlueGAP project.

Craig Just at the University of Iowa has sought an affordable wastewater solution for small towns. Now, through Just’s research, partnerships, and persistence, a pilot system in Dow City appears poised to meet federal wastewater treatment regulations. The technology would then be available for hundreds of small towns in Iowa.

Studying water led CEE alum Riley Post from the rivers of Iowa to the Pacific Ocean and back.

Civil engineering senior Sydney Parks, who has built corn monuments and concrete canoes as an ASCE leader, values the opportunities and support at Iowa and is giving back as a peer advisor for CEE.

Civil engineering students pay homage to Kinnick Stadium and America Needs Farmers (ANF) in this year's corn monument Homecoming tradition.

Jerald “Jerry” L. Schnoor, a renowned University of Iowa professor of civil and environmental engineering, has been inducted into the National Academy of Construction for contributions to environmental design.

William “Bill” David Ashton, a cherished member of the University of Iowa College of Engineering community who was among 30 members and four generations of the Ashton family to attend Iowa over a 90-year span, died on Sunday following injuries sustained in a car crash.

The Iowa Water Conference, held Sept. 11-13 at the Coralville Hyatt Regency, drew more than 300 attendees from water resource professions, including representatives from soil and conservation districts, research institutions, commodity associations, watershed compacts, and nonprofits.

David Cwiertny, University of Iowa's William D. Ashton Professor of Civil Engineering, is part of a research team studying how “grime” forms and evolves on solid surfaces, such as bridge beams, plane wings, solar panels, plant leaves, indoor surfaces, and more. The work could lead to improved approaches for designing new materials and coatings that can resist film forming, be easily and completely cleaned, or be covered by a beneficial film.
