Recently, several CSA team members were invited by the student chapter of Puerto Rico Water & Environment Association #PRWEA at the Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico to speak on new the new technologies in water engineering.
Our Water Resources Engineer from the Water Discipline, Samuel Rivera, made a spectacular presentation titled: “Hydroinformatics: Redefining what’s possible for water resources planning and management.” Samuel discussed cutting-edge technology, including hydroinformatics that served as an example of the automated/machine learning capabilities that are now available to professionals and developing professionals like the students. He also explained how these tools have real-world applications for CSA in support of recovery projects from the impacts of the hurricanes and earthquakes recently observed in Puerto Rico.
Hans X. Figueroa Sweet, PE, BCEE, ENV SP, our Resiliency Manager and Water Practice Leader, explained how CSA serves several infrastructure agencies that are already using or planning to use these advanced tools soon for the development and maintenance of Puerto Rico’s infrastructure. Today’s students will be the ones managing these technologies tomorrow.
Surey C. Meléndez Pascual, our Human Resources Talent Acquisition Specialist, greeted the students, shared promotional material, and engaged directly with the organizers to help review resumes and/or letters of interest to apply for internship, CO-OP, and employment opportunities at CSA.
Thank you to the PRWEA Student Chapter at the Polytechnic University. CSA is proud to be part of the development of the future’s industry professionals. We are CSA!
