Spring, 2016 “Advancing the Concrete Industry by Degrees”

Inside this issue:

Dr. Mohamed Mahgoub

Greetings all, It is a great pleasure for me to be leading the NJIT CIM program. The program keeps moving forward. Students keep busy with seminars, conferences, field visits, guest speakers, socials, student club activities and fund raising events to increase oncampus awareness of how good our program is. We started to have more students have co-ops than ever before. Our graduates receive 3 job offers on average. This is a great sign to show how healthy our concrete industry is. We will have approximately 6 students graduating this coming May. We are doing our best to replace them to keep our enrollment. In February, two CIM NJIT students flew to Las Vegas to represent our program in a CIM student presentation competition. Jerhard Evangelista won the first place and got a $2,500 check. He had the honor to cut the ribbon to start the World of Concrete Show, the biggest show in the world,

that was attended by 65,000 people. He was also selected to have a poster presentation at NCE Salute in Newark Museum in March. During the spring break, we had for the first time two group of students attending two major events at the same time. One group flew to UK to participate in a CIM USA team in a one week camp to build a concrete cable stayed bridge. At the same time the other group was representing ICRI student chapter at a competition at ICRI conference in Puerto Rico. All of these achievements would not have been possible without the great effort of CIM students and the great support from the national and local patrons. I would like to thank everybody for their great and sincere efforts and ask everybody to remain dedicated to our CIM program at NJIT. With passion and determination, I am confident that we can achieve great goals during this coming year. “
