If you have lived in Tallahassee for some time you have probably had the chance to see some of the work by Kever-McKee Engineering. Locally, the company has worked on Capital Health Plan building located on Thomasville Road at I-10 and the Proof Brewery Renovation on South Monroe, as well as many other notable projects. Patrick McKee started the firm in 2015 and Brian Kever came on board soon after. Both entrepreneurs graduated from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering through FSU.

Large quantities of debris is generated during a natural disaster, and the sheer magnitude of the waste can make cleanup complicated, costly and slow.

FAMU-FSU College of Engineering civil engineering assistant professor Juyeong Choi, Ph.D., is the principle investigator for a $300,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) EAGER grant aimed at creating a framework for not only streamlining cleanup and removal of disaster debris, but also cataloguing it so useable components can be recycled or reused.

Good afternoon,

Whether engineering a fix for septic problems in coastal areas or building libraries and playgrounds for children, Tarek Abichou has always been passionate about helping his home country of Tunisia.

Abichou, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, spent his summer on a community service project with TUNISIA-AID, organizing and stocking an elementary school library in Zarzis, a small town in south Tunisia.

Civil engineering professor Wei-Chou (Virgil) Ping has been granted emeritus status in recognition of service to the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering.

A growing population needs more food.

But the methods used to feed people, like land converted for farming and greater use of fertilizers, can lower biodiversity and jeopardize the sustainability of agricultural ecosystems. As the climate warms, irrigating crops will also become more challenging. Scientists are looking for better ways to feed the planet.

When a hurricane is dangerous enough to prompt evacuations, thousands of people find themselves fleeing at once.
