The Center for Infrastructure Renewal (CIR) makes a vital impact on infrastructure related industries through three pathways: research, education, and workforce development. As part of our workforce development arm, CIR labs and researchers offer short courses, trainings and workshops throughout the year led by industry experts and academics.
