Engineers dream big and then they build on those dreams.

They create and build bridges between impossible challenges and life enhancing solutions whether they’re making air and water cleaner, providing energy platforms to power our nation, or creating innovations so that communities can learn, heal, and inspire. Engineering remains fundamental to all aspects of our life, health, and welfare.

Engineers, Problem Solvers

Engineers are problem solvers. They are presented with a challenge and design the best solution that not only meets their client’s needs in the short-term, but address long-term challenges that might not be readily apparent to the untrained eye.

Engineers, Trusted Advisors

Engineers are advocates for progress. Working with both public and private clients, they apply their technological expertise and design vision to improve the structure of the world in which we live.

Land Development/Site Civil Engineering

Design professionals in the site-civil and land development sector work with their clients to assess options for land use, determining residential, recreational, commercial, and industrial options for sites. Land development engineers also design site layout, site grading and drainage and systems for storm water management and utilities. Site-civil and land development engineers work closely with local governments to meet zoning and regulatory requirements for the land under development.

Mechanical/Electrical Engineering

Mechanical and Electrical Engineers specialize in planning and designing building systems, such as heating and cooling, ventilation, plumbing, and electrical power. Using tools such as 3-D modelling, a mechanical/electrical engineer will consider how these designs work both independently and together. Mechanical Electrical Engineers also evaluate existing systems to conserve energy while ensuring efficiency and cost effectiveness.
