Ph.D. candidate Winnifred Agha represented Colorado State University at the 2026 American Society of Engineering Education conference over the summer.

Agha's work focuses on the experiences of early-career engineers through the lens of ethics and equity.

“As a student, this experience strengthened my confidence as a researcher, expanded my professional network, and deepened my commitment to advancing engineering education through research, collaboration, and scholarly engagement.”

She is grateful for funding from the CSU School of Sustainable Futures Diana Wall Sustainability Leadership Fellow Professional Development Award, and the Colorado State University Graduate School's GSC Conference Travel Grant.

Engineers often use their skills to impact the world around them. What if improving our world was part of the curriculum?

We now offer a Master of Engineering in Global Development and Humanitarian Engineering. This 30-credit program emphasizes civil, environmental, and systems engineering, with electives spanning economics, ecosystem science, sustainability, and international education.

Already working full-time? Starting in spring 2027, the degree will have a 100% online option! Earn your graduate degree without stalling your career progress.

Congratulations to Awetehagn Gebremariam for his $10,000 scholarship award from ASTM International! 🎉

Awet researches the material behavior and durability performance of concrete to advance more sustainable concrete infrastructure. He is specifically looking at chloride binding and transport in Portland-limestone cement systems.

Great work, Awet!!

Congratulations to Professor José L. Chávez for receiving the 2026 Excellence in Education Award from the Irrigation Association!

Chávez is known internationally for his work with remote sensing, evapotranspiration modeling, and precision irrigation. He currently serves as a Fulbright Specialist and delivered the keynote address at the Irrigation International Symposium in Uruguay.

He will be recognized at the Irrigation Show and Education Week in Las Vegas this December.

¡Felicidades! 🎉

Congratulations to Ph.D. student Rafin Hasan on receiving a USGS 104b Graduate Student Research Grant for his coupled hydrodynamic-groundwater modeling project in the Cache la Poudre!

His research focuses on better understanding how low-tech process-based restoration structures can reconnect incised streams to floodplain aquifers. Stream incision can occur following wildfires when soil becomes sealed or hydrophobic, causing streams to erode vertically and disconnect from the water table. Hasan will study the South Fork, a tributary of the Cache la Poudre River heavily impacted by the 2020 Cameron Peak Fire.

The grant is funded by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the National Institutes for Water Resources, and is awarded by the Colorado Water Center .

Josh Kates pushed himself to think bigger as an undergraduate. Now, he's encouraging other engineering students to do the same.

Kates was the only graduate in the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering to earn the Mentored Research and Artistry Distinction (MRAD) this spring. He hopes to change that by making more engineering students aware of the award.

“MRAD pushed me to make the most of my time as an undergraduate. I never thought I’d get to work in an atomic physics lab, present research in Italy with the U.S. Air Force Academy, become a Goldwater Scholar, or have the honor of serving as Vice President of Engineering College Council and of CSU’s ASCE chapter.”
