with more general and conceptual ideas.We also sought opinion from the industry advisory boards (IABs) on what new skills wouldbenefit the civil engineering graduates the most in their career. Their common answer was thatwhile CE graduates are good in numerical solution of traditional engineering problems, theyoften lack creativity in defining new problems and in offering innovative solutions. In the IABs’opinion, two areas of particular importance in near future will be (a) design and construction ofgreen buildings, especially as outlined by LEED, and (b) development and rehabilitation ofrobust civil infrastructure7. In addition, CE graduates need to improve their communication andwriting skills and should be able to work in interdisciplinary
