Environmental, Water Resources and Coastal Engineering

The Water Resources and Environmental Engineering (WREE) seminars include presentations and lectures by our faculty, visiting scholars and engineers from other institutions, faculty and scientists from other departments at NCSU, as well as our graduate students. The seminar series is important as we develop collaborations on our own research interests and on the developments of our graduate program. The seminar lectures allow graduate students in particular to get a sense of research challenges and career opportunities in the field. All are welcome!

Previous Seminars:   Fall 2008   Spring 2009   Fall 2009

The seminars will be held at 4pm on Mondays, in Mann Hall room 323, unless otherwise noted.
