Education, Outreach, and Training
The Center for Earthquake Engineering Simulation fully recognizes an importance of EOT program and has been involved with many EOT activities. The objectives of this program are; to encourage NEES and non-NEES research, to train current and future geotechnical engineering professionals and researchers, and to attract a larger, more diverse group of students into earthquake engineering and other engineering fields. The EOT activities at RPI include:
- Supporting the undergraduate civil engineering instrumentations and sensor class
- Organizing the centrifuge training workshop
- Presenting the facility’s capabilities at the meeting and conferences
- Hosting visiting scholar
- Giving facility tours for K-12 students and local community
