The Engineering Management Institute is thrilled to announce that Geoff Smith, PE, LEED AP, a practicing engineer and associate at Silman will serve as one of the co-hosts of our new show – This Week in Civil Engineering (TWiCE). TWiCE will be a short weekly show published to provide civil engineering professionals with the most important industry updates. The first episode will publish on 9/17 and Geoff will be the host of the episode publishing on 9/24.

Joined by his knowledgeable and experienced co-hosts, they will dive into topics that will include, but are not limited to:

• The latest news in the world of civil engineering, national and international,
• Information on government funding as it becomes available for civil related projects,
• Technical information related to new products that might improve project performance,
• Professional development tips for individuals and firms.

Geoff believes that it is important to just be yourself, as being you is something that no-one else can do.  In his own words, his goal as co-host of this show is that:

“TWiCE will help busy civil engineering professionals stay up to date with technical news in just 10-15 minutes each week.”

Meet Jared M. Green, PE, D.GE – Award-Winning Geotechnical Engineer Who Is Making a Difference

The Engineering Management Institute is thrilled to have Jared M. Green, PE, D.GE, Senior Associate and Award-Winning Geotechnical Practice Leader serving as host of our new podcast – The Geotechnical Engineering Podcast.

Jared enjoys mentoring young engineers and first-generation college students. He strives to make complex engineering topics relatable and understandable to people new to the field. You can hear more about Jared and the podcast in this short video. The show will launch in July 2020. In Jared’s own words, this is why he decided to become the host of the show:

“When I was invited to host the show, I was thrilled about the opportunity because I feel that Geotechnical Engineering is such a fascinating field. Podcasts were not as popular when I was starting my career. I wish I had a “go to” place to get rich engineering content when I was learning about my profession.”

Jared’s role as host of EMI’s podcast, The Geotechnical Engineering Podcast, is yet another way for him to give back to the geotechnical engineering community.  The show will serve to bring important industry information, including technical and non-technical news, to practicing geotechnical engineers worldwide.
