Visiting the CEE Department

We encourage prospective students to visit the University of Delaware and the department as part of their decision-making process. Seeing the campus and the department's facilities first-hand, meeting with faculty and students, or even sitting in on a class can all help you decide whether the University of Delaware is right for you.

The Office of Admissions offers several programs to introduce prospective students and their parents to the University of Delaware, including daily information sessions and campus tours and special events scheduled periodically throughout the year. If you can't visit the campus in person, you can take a virtual tour on-line.

While you're on campus, you may also want to arrange a tour of the CEE Department, meet with a faculty member, or attend a class. Please make your arrangements with the Admissions Office first, then contact the CEE Department's undergraduate coordinator, Professor Harry Shenton III. He will help you plan a visit that best suits your interests and schedule.

If you're wondering how to get here, please see our detailed maps and directions.


Highlights
Jack Puleo has won the NSF Early Career Development Award
Jack Puleo, assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Delaware, has received a prestigious National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Award to study swash zone sediment transport. The swash zone is the area near the shoreline where waves wash up and down the beach face.

The five-year $444,229 award is aimed at developing a broader understanding of the physics of coastal sediment transport in this area, thereby leading to significant improvement in the ability to predict such coastal phenomena as beach erosion and beach nourishment performance.
