The Lyles School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University is pleased to announce the availability of the Edward M. Curtis Visiting Professorship in Civil Engineering. This endowed visiting professorship was established to attract internationally renowned visitors to spend an academic year with the faculty and students of the Lyles School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University.  The visiting professorship provides funding to support the awardee during the stay.

The Edward M. Curtis Visiting Professorship in Civil Engineering is available annually. For the forthcoming 2024-2025 academic year, the Lyles School of Civil Engineering seeks candidates that will support one of the School’s specialty areas (see http://purdue.edu/CE/Academics/Groups) and contribute to one or more of the teaching, mentoring, research and service activities of the School.
