Episode 179: Akhtar Zaman, on finding a civil engineering home
There are a lot of ways to get your message out to the masses in 2025.
Social media, videos, podcasts.
But not everyone can say they’ve shared their love for community and civil engineering with a mural.
Akhtar Zaman did exactly that.
Born and raised in Bangladesh, Zaman found a home in northwest Indiana. He’s a principal engineer for Advanced Engineering Services in Hammond, Indiana – just outside Chicago. And when the company moved into a new building with a parking lot that bordered a blank wall, Zaman had an idea.
In episode 179 of ASCE Plot Points, Zaman talks about his community, his profession, and how he brought this mural to life.
