Civil and Environmental Engineering

Associate Professor and Associate Head (Education) in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering

Dr Steven Davis is an Associate Professor in Engineering Construction Management in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering.  Dr Davis translates his expertise in the use of Virtual Reality in construction visualisation directly to the classroom guiding students in the art of graphic modelling to solve some of engineering’s most complex problems and providing them with an invaluable foundation in comprehensive model building skills. 

Developing his own online software, Dr Davis has been able to enhance student learning, exposing the classroom to real world problems in today’s construction industry and challenging commonplace practice, assumptions and beliefs in order to identify and address deficiencies in industry modelling standards.  Davis’s thorough and organic approach also focuses on variables and probabilities as it seeks to make construction processes safer, more efficient and more structurally sound. His teaching is complemented by his research interests in Stochastic Systems, Evolutionary Programming, Parallel Computing Applications to Civil Engineering and Online Assessment.
