For their capstone project in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a team of students will work to improve the functioning of downtown area streets by creating updated designs for downtown roads and sidewalks.

The designs will provide better access to building entrances and meet ADA standards. The team will address utility system relocation and design and streetscape development for better walkability. The streetscape will also address street elevation issues and include the connection to the Hoover Historic Site and Presidential Library.

For their capstone project in Civil & Environmental Engineering, a team of students will improve the functionality of West Branch streets by designing a safer, more efficient truck route.

The team of students will analyze the current route, evaluate alternative alignments, address constraints, and develop a roadway design and plans. 

For their capstone project in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a team of students will develop a comprehensive plan to evaluate, prioritize, and design utility replacements in a subdivision in West Branch. 

The student team will assess existing utilities, evaluate replacement options, prioritize improvements, design replacement systems, and provide a phased implementation roadmap for the City of West Branch.

As part of their Senior Design Capstone Course, Civil & Environmental Engineering students designed a Public Safety Building to meet the needs of the growing city of Granger.

As part of their Senior Design Capstone Course, Civil & Environmental Engineering students will propose designs for the current site of the Bethel AME Church in Clinton. 

As part of their Senior Design Capstone Course, Civil & Environmental Engineering students provided design and analysis support for an integrated parks and environmental engineering project along Mud Creek in Bondurant.

For their capstone project, Civil and Environmental Engineering students examined potential reuse of two six-pack silos in Bondurant.

For their capstone project in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a team of students evaluated upgrades to enable future improvements for Cleaveland Park in Bondurant.

Stormwater constraints currently restrict improvements to Cleaveland Park. Students evaluateed potential stormwater upgrades within the park parcel and the surrounding area that could enable future park improvements. Students prepared detailed design plans to support development of Cleaveland Park as a neighborhood public amenity.

For their capstone project in Civil & Environmental Engineering, a team of students designed multi-use trail connections and trail segments as well as developed engineering designs and cost estimates for the City of Bondurant.

As a growing community, Bondurant has the opportunity to increase recreation opportunities for residents and visitors. This project included the following components: 

For their capstone project in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a team of students will create designs for an underutilized greenspace in Manchester adjacent to the Maquoketa River.

As part of their Senior Design capstone course, Civil and Environmental Engineering students provided analysis, recommendations, designs, and costs for extending West Branch's sanitary sewer trunk line to meet the needs of the growing community.
