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 will design a Public Safety Building that meets 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 will provide 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 will examine potential reuse of the ground-floor areas of the two six-pack silos in Bondurant.

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.

The City of West Burlington sought an evaluation and redesign of its downtown area to enhance functionality and visual appeal, facilitate public events, attract visitors. For their capstone project, a group of Civil and Environmental Engineering students designed multiple components for the downtown area, including green medians, permeable paved roadways, covered parking, a pedestrian walkway, and reconfigured parking. 

For their capstone project in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a team of students created engineering and design plans for a park to be located on a former industrial site. Located adjacent to the Mississippi River, the project had several obstacles, notably possible soil contamination and flooding. The team reviewed the site, selected amenities that worked with these challenges, and made recommendations for ways to incorporate the historic rail yard that formerly stood at the site.

For their capstone project, three senior Civil and Environmental Engineering students designed a Parks and Forestry facility that prioritizes energy efficiency, long-term durability, and architectural integration with the natural park environment in which the facility will be located.

Several former industrial buildings are in close proximity to the central downtown of the City of Burlington. Currently unused, the city is seeking to revitalize the area and adapt the structures to new purposes. For their capstone project in Civil & Environmental Engineering, a trio of students designed an adaptive reuse plan for the Dial Soap Factory, a 1.28-acre site on a prime location.
