In response, more agencies continue to adopt and develop their asset management practices and more academic institutions and continuing education programs define courses and programs in civil infrastructure asset management. This paper focuses on an infrastructure management class offered at the graduate level mainly for civil engineering and transportation planning students. The outline of the class and a brief overview of active and engagement-based learning techniques are presented, and the way these techniques are integrated with the delivery of the asset management material is described.
