Civil engineering educators are encouraged to criticallyreview their own programs to evaluate whether they are graduating students who are prepared tobe creative and innovative in their practice, in alignment with outcomes in the third edition of theCEBOK. Individually, each instructor can consider ways to integrate creativity and innovation intothe courses that they teach. A widespread commitment to instilling the mindset and basic tools forcreativity and innovation in civil engineering students will ultimately benefit both the professionand society, contributing to safer, more sustainable, and resilient infrastructure.

Florida produces a wide variety of goods including food andbeverage, communications equipment, aerospace products, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors,and more. Its transportation infrastructure includes over 20 airports, 15 deepwater seaports,3,000 miles of freight rail tracks, and 2 spaceports giving the industry many options for movingand exporting products [4]. Florida ranks 45th among the 50 states in terms of the industry’scontribution towards its own GDP, although it’s low ranking among other states inmanufacturing can be misleading. Florida is
