Federal Highway Administration
Forum at GWU
Recently, the CEE department signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA), Washington DC. Under this agreement, the CEE
department and FHWA have the opportunity to be engaged in the following activities:
- Field trips for the CEE undergraduate students to the laboratory facilities
of FHWA at the Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center
(TFHRC). These trips could include a detailed review of the work being performed
in any of the TFHRC’s 25 laboratories.
- GWU/FWHA internship program: where GWU undergraduate students may work
in FHWA as interns. Appropriate internships may involve observing and contributing
to design and testing, observing highway construction, or learning the economics or
marketing of engineering and products.
- Dual oversight of graduate students in CE298, “Independent Study,” where a
GWU student registered for this course will be supervised by a CEE faculty member and
an FHWA employee.
- Provide mentoring and technical advice, and collaboration with
the student volunteers’ advisors, on activities performed at TFHRC associated with
M.Sc. theses and D.Sc. dissertations. This year, students in the CE196 class
(Senior Design Course) are building a concrete beam reinforced with fiber plastic
reinforcing bars and testing it at FHWA. (More information and pictures will
be available soon.)
