Coastal Engineering and Resilience Curriculum Workshop

Join us for a Coastal Engineering and Resilience Curriculum Workshop bringing together key partners, faculty, and stakeholders to explore curriculum development opportunities within FIU’s College of Engineering and Computing.

This workshop will focus on identifying priority topics, engineering expertise, and potential collaborators to support a curriculum centered on coastal infrastructure, engineering and resilience, and workforce preparation. Participants will discuss curriculum goals, share perspectives from their organizations and engineering backgrounds, and help define next steps for building educational pathways that prepare students and professionals to address emerging infrastructure challenges in coastal communities.
