Student teams from across the country must meet stringent criteria to build a steel bridge that spans 20 feet and has a load capacity of 2,500 pounds. They get points for things like speed, aesthetics, and this year, sustainability of materials. The competition looms large in the world of civil engineering, and newcomers to the field often make connections through it that help them land their first job.
CU Denver’s Civil Engineering Club will compete at the Rocky Mountain regionals this year, from April 10 to 12. Their design will face off against six others from across the region. If they win, they’ll head to nationals.
