The Civil and Environmental Engineering department has a centralized approach for advising. Students are encouraged to reach out to the program emails listed below as the primary point of contact for any inquiries, and advisors will distribute questions as necessary. Email is the best way to reach everyone in the department – administrative staff, technical staff, laboratory instructors and faculty included. We will respond as quickly as possible.  

You can find a complete list of email addresses, office locations, and telephone numbers on the Our People page of our website.
