As a professional engineer (PE) and associate professor of civil engineering at Merrimack College, Dr. Carlson understands that civil engineering impacts public health and community well-being in many ways. Dr. Carlson is passionate about the many ways infrastructure and its designers can support healthier communities (both human and environmental) through improved walkability, water-quality protection, and stormwater management. She is also interested in how best to teach engineering and science concepts to professionals, college students and youth. This involves a variety of types of hands-on, experiential learning, such as project-based learning, real-world projects, and simulations/games.
