Collaborative Research

Increasing capacity and Capability

Collaboration is integral to the success of Engineering With Nature and also for robust research. These research topics are jointly lead by an EWN researcher from the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center paired with a university partner to expand the study of natural infrastructure across regions and disciplines while leveraging the complimentary expertise of partners. Learn more about the contributions of our impressive collaborators through the Network for Engineering With Nature (N-EWN).
