2022 ASCE President Dennis Truax on the Past, Present, and Future of Civil Engineering

2022 ASCE President Dennis Truax on the Past, Present, and Future of Civil Engineering

Outdated education with low pay, but worn out infrastructure and sustainability needs? 🤔

These are the two sides of civil engineering today — and nobody has lived and breathed the field as much as Dennis D. Truax to know the right way to look at it. 👇

Dennis is a civil engineer who has spent decades shaping the profession in leadership positions. From leading Mississippi State University’s civil department to serving as ASCE President in 2022!

In this episode, he shares the harsh truths and the hidden opportunities he sees today for civil engineers. And if that’s not enough, he also gives us a sneak peek into a new platform that challenges the old work model of one company, 40-hour workweeks.

(Yep. You read that right. 😨)

If you want to hear wisdom from someone who’s been in the trenches, led at the highest levels, and is still working to shape the future of civil engineering even after “retirement,” you’ll love this conversation. 😉
