Manson Donates to University of North Carolina Wilmington's Coastal Engineering Program

Big news at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, where Manson was recognized at the Coastal Engineering Senior Design Day luncheon with a classroom named the "Manson Construction Dredging Education Lab" in the Coastal Engineering building.

The honor marks a milestone in Manson’s partnership with the University—and a reflection of our shared commitment to the future of coastal engineering.

This recognition follows a donation from Manson which goes toward enhancing the geotechnical lab, expanding advanced equipment, and opening more doors for students and faculty to pursue impactful dredging research.

At the luncheon, Manson Dredging Engineering Manager Kyle Dickens highlighted Manson’s commitment to advancing the future of the dredging industry and investing in the people who will one day lead it.

More on the Manson–UNCW partnership is coming in the summer edition of the Manson Navigator.
