It is with heavy hearts that we bid farewell to Prof. Campbell Middleton (University of Cambridge), a distinguished academic and a dear friend to the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Moratuwa.

While the engineering world knows him for his brilliant mind, we at Moratuwa will forever remember him for his extraordinary heart. During his visit as an external examiner in 2022, a time when our nation was grappling with a severe economic crisis, Prof. Middleton sat through a presentation by the Civil Engineering Society - University of Moratuwa.

Moved by the dedication and resilience of our students, he didnโ€™t just offer words of encouragement; he offered a lifeline. Prof. Middleton donated his personal funds to the society, a selfless act that paved the way for over 15 scholarships for our 3rd year and final-year students. His generosity ensured that many could continue their degree despite the immense financial hardships of that time.

His legacy isn't just in the structures he studied, but in the careers he saved and the lives he touched in Sri Lanka.

Rest in peace, Professor. Your kindness will never be forgotten. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

The Department of Civil Engineering has formalized a strategic collaboration with Sterling Steels (pvt) Limited through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at advancing industry-led research in Sri Lankaโ€™s steel construction sector. This partnership is dedicated to bridging the gap between academic innovation and real-world industry challenges through knowledge exchange.

Supervised by Dr. H. M. S. T. Herath, the research will focus on the performance of cold-formed steel sections and connections under complex loading conditions. This initiative creates structured opportunities for our undergraduate and postgraduate students to engage in industry-relevant R&D, providing them with technical expertise and access to facilities that support industrial exposure.
