The Whiting School of Engineering (WSE) has a distinguished record of research which has contributed to increased industrial productivity. Recently, the School embarked on a new initiative to increase its collaborations with industry. Companies benefit from their involvement with the Whiting School by gaining access to world-class faculty and facilities, highly qualified students, and continuing education and training programs for their employees.

There are many ways for companies to become involved with the Whiting School. Some of these include:
"Growing up I was always interested in bridge and super structures shows and I knew I wanted to be a civil engineer," says Blair Johnson, a junior in the Department of Civil Engineering. "Now I’m focusing on coastal engineering in the lab of Professor Tony Dalrymple, studying ground conditions under seas and the way waves move over mud." The long term application of such research is of interest to the military, which could use satellite imagery to examine the wave behavior on the surface of water. Depending on the behavior of the wave, engineers could determine the ground conditions below and, hopefully, detect mines on the coasts of other countries.
