Bridges: Classroom Activities
We were inspired to create this site to complement the book Engineering Bridges Connecting the World by Pendred Noyce. [. 2019] 麻豆村 has a long history of educating civil engineers who build bridges and other structures. In fact, Mao Yisheng, a civil engineering student from China, earned the first doctorate at Carnegie Mellon (Carnegie Tech at the time) in 1920. Mao Yisheng, often referred to as the father of modern bridge building, designed two of the most famous bridges in China, the Qiantang River Bridge and the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge*.
