Founder of
Scotty's Contracting
The SCCE was created through a generous gift from Mr. Jim Scott in order to create a unique educational opportunity for undergraduate Civil Engineering students. The SCCE works in partnership with local construction and engineering firms to give students hands on engineering experiences and to provide opportunities for faculty to "Practice What They Preach", and be practicing engineers and share their experiences with their students.
