Boulos has also made contributions to the profession through his various leadership positions, including serving as president of the American Academy of Water Resources Engineers (AAWRE) and on the board of trustees of the Academy of Coastal, Ocean, Port & Navigation Engineers (ACOPNE). His dedication to scholarship is evident in his involvement with the board of trustees of the Lebanese American University and America-Mideast Educational and Training Services, Inc.

His accomplishments have earned him awards for excellence from ASCE, The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), along with prestigious alumni awards from the University of Kentucky College of Engineering and the Lebanese American University.
Boulos holds a bachelor’s and master's degree as well as a Ph.D in civil engineering from the University of Kentucky. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in general science from the Lebanese American University and an executive MBA from Harvard Business School.
Founded in 1852, the American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 146,000 civil engineers worldwide and is America’s oldest national engineering society. ASCE’s 2013 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure, graded America’s cumulative GPA for infrastructure at a D+. The Report Card app for Apple and Android devices includes videos, interactive maps and infographics that tell the story behind the grades, as well as key facts for all 50 states.
