"AR/VR and AI: Digital Disruption & Civil Engineering Re-Imagined" by Amrita Bajwa - May 7th Disrupt or Be Disrupted. Have you ever wondered how trending technologies like Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, Drones, Artificial Intelligence, and Internet-of-Things are being incorporated and utilized in civil engineering? Amrita Bajwa, Global Platform Technology Lead at Jacobs will present on current and emerging technologies that are taking our industry by storm. She will discuss the cause and effects of digital disruption, and how the rapid advancement of technology is affecting project delivery, efficiency, and safety; in addition to some interesting case studies on how various technologies have been utilized throughout projects in California and around the world. "Engineering through Economic Cycles: Thrive in any Economy" by Jeff Cooper, Aileen Santos-Redman and Others - May 14th Economic ups and downs are a natural part of a dynamic economy. Although collective thinking is that the U.S. economy is healthy and growing, some experts are anticipating an economic disruption in 2019 or early 2020. While experts are looking at various economic data to better define the risk and timing of this economic slowdown, these events are hard to predict. So, what does it mean to be an engineer through these cycles and periods of uncertainty? Through the experiences of seasoned engineers, this session will provide information and tips on how to best prepare, adapt, and thrive in any economy. "Collaborating with Cities: An Integrated Approach" by Brian Ulaszewaki and Meredith Reynolds - May 21 Many public agencies are embracing community-based, collaborative, planning and design processes. Projects and policies that integrate public support can become the cornerstone for a community's character. Local agencies and engineering partners must adapt to our ever changing world by working more cohesively in order to thrive in the future to meet the public’s wants and needs. Arguably, the best way to do so is to bring the community into the creative design space. This presentation will leave you with a fresh perspective of the obstacles and challenges the public sector encounters within itself and innovative ways to better serve your clients and, more importantly, the people in the communities you serve.
