Lubo Liu

Dr. Lubo Liu serves as a Professor in the Department of Civil and Geomatics Engineering at California State University, Fresno's Lyles College of Engineering. He is a registered professional engineer in Environmental Engineering with a research-intensive career spanning water resources and environmental systems.

His academic credentials include:

• Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering, University of South Carolina (2003)
• M.S. in Water Resources and Hydraulic Engineering, Tsinghua University, China (1998)
• B.S. in Hydraulic Engineering, Tsinghua University, China (1995)

Dr. Liu's research integrates laboratory and field observations with advanced modeling to investigate contaminant fate in surface/groundwater systems, subsurface characterization, and bioremediation processes. His current dual focus targets agricultural soil enhancement for improved water/nutrient retention and analysis of near-shore dynamics in inland waters with emphasis on pathogen transport mechanisms. This work bridges theoretical environmental engineering with practical agricultural and public health applications.

He instructs core civil engineering courses including CE 80 (Computer Applications), CE 128 (Hydraulics), CE 171 (Engineering Hydrology), CE 172 (Urban Stormwater Design), CE 176 (Environmental Engineering), CE 241 (Groundwater Engineering), and CE 246 (Contaminant Transport). His scholarly output comprises extensive publications in water resources and environmental engineering journals, though specific award recognition is not documented in available materials.
