A ‘novel’ approach to civil engineering

ASCE Plot Points Season 4 Episode 4: Melissa Fischer is a supervising engineer for the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts. But lately, she’s probably better known as a novelist. Her novel, “The Advocacy,” has earned rave reviews – Kirkus Reviews called the protagonist, Louisa Lehmann “a delightful, complicated character” and the Southern Literary Review called the book “profound.”

Fischer talks about the novel, why it was something she spent 25 years working on and how it’s helped make her a better civil engineer.

And in Student Ambassadors, we get a rundown on some favorite ASCE memories.
