Structuring support

If there is anything civil engineering and project management alumnus Mohamed Niagne is passionate about, it is support structures — in engineering, and especially in relationships. As the graduate student commencement speaker for the fall Class of 2024, Niagne hopes to convey the importance of those support structures, which led him from the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Science and Engineering Program at UAA to his current position at the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Department of Transportation and Public Facilities.
