NDSU's Commercial – CM at Risk team won its division at the recent North Central Region of the Associated Schools of Construction student competition.

Students from the NDSU Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering earned awards and valuable experience at the North Central Region of the Associated Schools of Construction student competition held in Nebraska City, Nebraska, Oct. 23-25.

During the competition, students were given a construction industry proposal problem statement. They had one day to solve the problem, turn in deliverables and put together a presentation that would be given to the problem sponsor. Their solutions contained several components, including a full construction estimate, construction site utilization plan and safety and quality control project methods.

The competition helps students learn how to work under pressure, work as a team and enhance their communication skills by placing them in real-life project management situations.

NDSU had two teams that attended the competition. The Commercial – CM at Risk team included students Joey Halter, Erick Rossow, Latham Streeter, Lucas Pearson, Eli Dale and Eric Warmka. They won their division, taking home the first-place trophy and a $500 donation to the Associated General Contractors student chapter at NDSU.

The Heavy Civil team included students Kaleb Flaagan, Hayden Haag, Noah Schleske, Brooke Luedders, Matt Peterson and Hannah Wiebold.

The North Central ASC student competition showcases some of the top students in the country. The annual event features more than 30 teams from 14 universities in seven states.
