The civil engineering program starts with a base of mathematics, physical sciences, engineering sciences and humanities, then explores civil engineering’s specialty areas. Civil engineers meet the challenges of pollution control, traffic congestion, drinking water needs, energy demands, urban redevelopment, coastal protection and resiliency, 以及社区规划.

Engineering Student Learns to Focus on the Big Picture

克里斯Willhite

When 克里斯Willhite was growing up, his cousins and brother nicknamed him Mr. Perfect. During arguments, he would lay out his carefully backed evidence. 他不愿意 waver. “If I was sure I was right about something, I was going to stick to that,” he said.

So it’s no surprise that he grew up to major in civil, coastal 以及环境工程 at South. 工程师研究和分析. When they come to a conclusion, they have 能站在它后面. 它们必须是完美的. 如果他们没有把事情做好, 灾难可能随之而来.

Civil engineering involves designing and building structures and systems, from buildings and bridges to water facilities and highways. Specializations include coastal engineering (coastline protection, port and harbor structures) 以及环境工程 (drinking water and wastewater systems, pollution controls).

“It’s all about problem-solving, trying to find ways to make things happen,” Willhite said.

 

“It’s all about problem-solving, trying to find ways to make things happen.”

 

他出生在莫比尔. His family moved to Atlanta, then returned to Mobile during 他的中学时代. In high school, he considered a military career. His love for math and science eventually nudged him toward engineering.

He said the South engineering faculty has given him not only technical knowledge and skills but also a broader understanding of what engineering is all about. 一个最喜欢的 professor told him not to focus on getting A’s. 相反,威尔海特说:“如果你的注意力 is learning the big topics of the class and taking what you’re supposed to take away from the class, then you’re going to be more successful as an engineer and more successful in life.”

接下来是什么? 也许是研究生院. Maybe a career in the public sector, inspired partly by an internship with the Public Works Department in nearby Daphne, Alabama.

Whatever the job, he wants it to be hands-on. “我更想待在这个领域 我想待在办公室里.”
