Penn State Harrisburg offers two related programs in the area of civil, construction, and environmental engineering: Civil Engineering (CE) and Structural Design and Construction Engineering Technology (SDCET). The CE program prepares students to perform duties in planning, designing, and supervision of heavy construction and maintenance of structures and facilities with focus on structural, construction, transportation, and environmental engineering. The SDCET program emphasizes structural design principles and construction techniques, preparing students for a career in the construction and design of commercial buildings and bridges.

The 24th annual African American Read-In at Penn State Altoona will take place Feb. 18-19. This year’s theme, “Black Ecologies,” celebrates environmental writing by Black authors who examine the human relationship with the more-than-human world. Their works explore topics from wilderness and outdoor adventure to gardening, geography, environmental science, urban nature, and issues such as environmental justice and climate change. This theme is as old as the 400-year African American literary tradition itself, offering the enjoyment of both contemporary and historical works across a range of genres such as poetry, short fiction, novels, and essays.
The logo for the 2024 African American Read-in was created by student artist Mekhi Hicks.
