Join Us!
Location: Clemson, SC
Date: June 9 - 11, 2026
Clemson University's Glenn Department of Civil Engineering and the Wood Utilization + Design Institute are partnering with ThinkWood to host a 2.5-day, hands-on workshop for engineering faculty. The workshop will cover wood engineering and design, and strategies for incorporating this subject matter into your teaching, research and outreach. It will include presentations from guest speakers, tours of Clemson's mass timber facilities and active dialogue among participants to equip you with effective strategies for integrating wood engineering into your work and classroom. This workshop will cover topics relevant to both light-frame and mass timber constructions.
The workshop is all-inclusive for participants. Travel expenses, lodging and meals are funded through a generous sponsorship from ThinkWood. This opportunity is only for faculty in US universities. Preference will be given to junior faculty.
