Carlos Flores-Garay recently attended the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Mid-Atlantic East and West Student Symposium, held at Penn State University. The event brought together over 400 students to engage in a range of civil engineering activities, including technical competitions, presentations, and professional development sessions.
Carlos has served as a judge for the Steel Bridge Competition since 2016 and has also served as a National Judge, marking his third time as Head Judge for the Regional Competition. The Mid-Atlantic steel bridge competition featured 15 student-led teams tasked with designing and building a bridge capable of supporting over 2,000 pounds. In his role as judge, Carlos evaluated the structural performance, design, and construction of each team’s bridge.
In addition to judging, Carlos was also invited to speak at the symposium’s banquet, where he shared insights from his professional experience and offered encouragement to the next generation of civil engineers..
