Our M.Eng. in Structural Engineering seminar series enhances classroom education by addressing professional topics and expanding on topics addressed in class. Students broaden their horizons by learning about hot topics from leaders in the industry. Frequent field trips complement the seminar series by transporting the learning experience outside the walls of the classroom.
