In this episode, Joseph Grout of Texas State University and Emma Roth from South Dakota State University, students in Concrete Industry Management (CIM) programs, share their unique journeys into the field. Emma’s entry was inspired by her father’s career, while Joe shifted from computer animation to concrete sculpture. They discuss research on 3D-printed concrete structures, balancing technical service with customer engagement, and leadership in ACI chapters. The episode also highlights efforts toward inclusivity, concrete aesthetics, sustainability, and the strong support from industry patrons, with a focus on CIM program offerings across five states.
