» Program Overview

Giving strength and durability to the critical infrastructure that shapes the lives of communities great and small, concrete remains the basic building block of civilization. Throughout history and across the world, concrete has – in buildings and bridges, seawalls and sidewalks, monuments and meeting places – facilitated the practical designs and aesthetic ambitions of humanity. The single most utilized substance after water, its common presence belies the complexity of its use, and its great potential represents both our foundation and our future.

LTU, through an innovative partnership with the Michigan Concrete Association (MCA), has created a program that is the first of its kind in the nation.
