Students in the Civil and Environmental Engineering program will redesign a brownfield into a park with water access. This capstone project will provide designs, pricing, and a timeline for a multi-phase project.

The City of Burlington seeks designs for a new building to house its Parks and Recreation division. The building needs to include offices, public meeting areas, storage, and locker rooms. For their capstone project, students in Civil and Environmental Engineering will provide designs, pricing, and a timeline for the project.

There are several existing buildings in Burlington, including the former Dial Soap building that is nearly 127,000 square-feet, that the city hopes to rehabilitate and adapt for new uses. As part of their capstone work, students in Civil and Environmental Engineering will assess the buildings and create designs for adaptive reuse.

Plans for a new subdivision to be located in New Sharon will be designed by students in Civil and Environmental Engineering as part of their capstone. 

Students in Civill and Environmental Engineering will provide designs for combining two existing buildings into one, multi-use structure. 

For a capstone project, students in Civil and Environmental students will review the structural integrity of an amphitheater and create designs for rehabilitation.

As part of their Senior Design capstone project, a team of civil & environmental engineering students will provide designs, preliminary engineering reports, and cost estimates for a variety of improvements to county parks in Jefferson County. 

For their capstone projects, students in Civic and Environmental Engineering created designs, alternatives, scheduling, and costs to update a community center. Their work focused on several aspects of the building:  the parking lot, the building's entryway, layout and partition of the mainfloor, and connectivity of upstairs meeting room to entryway. 

Students in a capstone Civil and Environmental Engineering program will design a site plan for the subdivision that will maximize the number of homes that can be developed. They may include plans for a pocket park as part of the project, setting the example for future developments. 

For their capstone project, Civil and Environmental Engineering students provided analysis, recommendations, designs, and costs to address flooding in West Burlington's Luers Park. 

Roughly 80% of West Burlington's stormwater drains into Luer’s Park, which in turn flows into Izaak Walton Lake to the north. The lake is experiencing severe erosion and sedimentation build-up. Its current outflow structure is unable to discharge an adequate volume of water. 

For their capstone project, students in Civil and Environmental Engineering designed a 10-foot wide trail that includes pedestrian cross improvements at several intersections. The trail will improve pedestrian safety and mobility for people traveling to and from essential shopping areas, schools, a medical center, senior housing, and recreation spaces. 

As part of their Senior Design Capstone course, Civil & Environmental Engineering students created site plans and designs for a small sustainability-focused "EcoVillage" in the unincorporated community of Scotch Grove, located in Jones County.
