Abstract

As a university located in the South Borneo region, Lambung Mangkurat University (ULM) has academic and moral responsibilities to conserve Borneo’s “lungs of the world”. Especially for the Graduate School of Civil Engineering ULM, national seminar regarding this matter has been held every year. The Graduate school of Civil Engineering has already organized the Annual National Seminar since 2014 on several themes and sub-themes regarding sustainable development. This year, to improve the quality of the seminars and to reach a wider range of speakers and participants, the Graduate School of Civil Engineering will organize the First International Symposium on Civil Engineering and Environmental Research (ISCEER), which is also planned to be held annually. Theme for the First ISCEER is “Green technology for sustainable development in Civil and Environmental Engineering”. The symposium was held on November 1-2, 2021.In the symposium, we discussed the latest findings regarding Green Technology and Sustainable Development to achieve environmentally friendly development, including but not limited to:a. Structural and material engineeringb. Water engineeringc. Environmental engineering, andd. Geotechnical engineeringThis symposium aims to produce documents on points of view and ideas generated bycross-disciplinary speakers who have high concern on the Civil Engineering and Environmental Research, in terms of sustainable development in general and specifically in green construction. This activity is expected to encourage the passion for researching the green technology for sustainable development. As a result, this is moving towards sustainable development publications published in national and international journals. It becomes suggestions for policy-makers in the context of sustainable development, which are always close to people’s lives and their environments.List of Advisory Board, Organizing Committees, Secretary are available in this pdf.
