In the Spotlight

Damaged Structure photo The recent earthquakes in Chile and Haiti raise questions about how lessons learned from these disasters will be used to limit the structural and societal damages of similar, future catastrophes around the world. Chile offers more lessons for U.S. planners than Haiti does, given similarities in building codes and earthquake awareness, and engineers worry that some infrastructure here in the U.S. may not be able to withstand a "Big One". Engineering Pathway invites you to explore these issues and solutions by browsing our resources on earthquakes, and visiting our relevant engineering community pages: Geological Engineering, Civil Engineering, Engineering Ethics, and Community-based Service Learning.
