Shengzhe (Jackson) Wang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering & Construction at the University of Colorado Denver. Dr. Wang works at the confluence of water and the built environment to pioneer creative structural systems that enhance the resiliency of future cities against natural hazards exacerbated by a changing climate. Through this interdisciplinary perspective, his research explores the interaction between extreme hydrodynamic events with onshore, offshore, and floating structures; architecture and nature-inspired solutions to coastal resilience; and the geometric mechanics of thin-shell structures across different scales and fields of application. Dr. Wang holds a Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Structural Engineering from the University of Auckland, a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Civil Engineering from the University of Sydney, and a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Civil & Environmental Engineering from Princeton University.
