  • Basic understanding of structural engineering fundamentals, including free-body diagrams and shear, axial, and moment diagrams.
  • Interest in bridge engineering, transportation structures, and infrastructure design.
  • Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 in undergraduate coursework.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong technical, organizational, and problem-solving abilities, with the ability to work collaboratively.
