2019 Report Card for Northeast Ohio's Infrastructure
|
|
A list of media coverage, including interviews with our committee chairs Gina Beim, PE and Ed Admaczyk, PE, can be viewed

.
The ASCE website dedicated to the Report Card, including the full report, can be viewed at the link below.
Thank you to the Committee, attendees and speakers who helped make the Report Card and release event a success, the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency (
NOACA
) for allowing us to use their conference room for the release, and anyone who had a hand in collecting data and organizing data for the Report Card. This was a voluntary undertaking that took countless hours of personal time.
Please take some time to look it over and feel free to use it as tool in conversations with Northeast Ohio residents, policymakers, and businesses when discussing infrastructure.

CWRU Humanitarian Design Corps
Costa Rica Project
|
|
Case Western Reserve University's chapter of Engineers Without Borders/ Humanitarian Design Corps, is currently seeking technical advisers for its student team working in the Guanacaste Province of Costa Rica. The project is based in a small community of 250 people. Most pressing issues concern the community's 2-kilometer pipeline running from its well to the storage tank. Water quality issues are also present. The team has traveled twice in the last two years (Assessment Trip in January 2017 and Implementation Trip in March 2018) and is looking to return to Costa Rica in January 2019. In March of 2018, the student team replaced 1.8 kilometers of pipe; the focus for the upcoming trip will be resolving residual issues with the pipeline as well as monitoring leaks water consumption within the system. We welcome advisers from all engineering backgrounds, especially those with skills in:
- Underground pipeline design
- Stormwater management
- Water monitoring
- Bore well design and construction
- General construction
- GIS
Come join a highly motivated, interdisciplinary, and, most importantly, fun team of students who are passionate about humanitarian work and international development. If the Costa Rica Project does not sound of interest, the chapter has ongoing projects in the Philippines, Dominican Republic, and Malawi that could also use additional advisers. Please don't hesitate to contact the below people for more information.

Currently, we provide four scholarships to two local universities, Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and Cleveland State University (CSU). In April of 2018, we awarded four civil engineering student members from CSU and CWRU four $750 scholarships at the Geotechnical Institute Event. Our goal is to increase these scholarships to $1,000 in 2019, at which point they will be indexed to the cost of tuition, increasing in $250 increments to keep pace. The Scholarship Committee’s ultimate goal is to raise enough money for an endowment so the fund is self-sustaining.
