Citadel Civil Engineering

Our Seniors in CIVL and CONE completed their last academic activity on Tuesday evening by presenting their 90% Completion Designs for an eVTOL training and repair hub in the Greenville Downtown Airport in Greenville, SC. Congratulations to all the seniors, but particularly teams "Aero Build Solutions" and "Lumora Engineering and Design" who won the Best Senior Presentation Award. Thank you to all of our Capstone Panelists for their oversight and feedback for our students!

Day Two of the 2026 Carolina Symposium was filled with hours of fun! From Mead Paper presentations, to 3D Bridge, all the way to Quiz Bowl, our cadets showed up & showed out! 📄

Not only did all of our teams do an amazing job presenting on each competition they were participating in, but our Surveying Team placed 2nd in the competition! 🏆

Along with this, senior Davis Holt placed 1st in 3D Bridge and won the sub-awards of "Highest Structural Efficiency" and "Fastest Assembly Time". Great job, Davis! 👏 🌉

At the end of the Symposium, The Citadel was also awarded the Dr. David M. Bayer Sportsmanship award! Named in honor of Charlotte’s professor emeritus of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Dr. David M. Bayer, the Outstanding Sportsmanship Award is presented each year to the team that most embodies camaraderie and compassion to the other teams at the Symposium. 💙

Way to go, ASCE Student Chapter, the department is so proud of all of your hard work & accomplishments this year! Time to start planning for 2027! 🦖 🦕

Day One of the 2026 Carolina Symposium hosted by went off without a hitch! 🛶 🔨

Our cadets made us proud in both the race, the competition, and the competition! Of course, they had to show out in their themed Cap-Dog shirts, designed by senior Zander Murray, just for this year's competition! At the end of the week, Cadet Murray took home the first place trophy for the T-Shirt Design Competition! Congrats, Zander, we're so proud of you! 🏆

Stay tuned for more posts about the team's trip last week! Up next: Timber-Strong Design, 3D Bridge, and more!
