Student Success

A dual-university student team including Lehigh civil engineering major Yushun Zou ’24 (pictured above, far right) won the Project Precast Design Competition held in Denver during the 2024 Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) Convention in February.

Thirty-two students were chosen from across the U.S. to participate in the event, which is organized by the PCI Foundation and sponsored by PCI member organizations. 

Brooke Cannon’s path to landing a Fulbright scholarship started, in part, with a baby deer named Juicy. 

The fawn’s mother had been hit by a car, and the newborn lay on the side of the road, covered with insects.
