Sustainability is the challenge of meeting today's needs without impairing the needs of future societies. This course seeks to provide an integrated scientific foundation to understand the sustainability of environmental systems and of some science-based sustainable solutions. Sustainability science will draw from a spectrum of relevant sciences, including chemistry, biology, environmental science, and physics. Pre-requisite: CHEM 1410 or CHEM 1810

This purpose of this course is to introduce and familiarize students with engineering economics. Students will apply the concepts of the time value of money to infrastructure management. Students will be able to compare cash flows using net present value, future value, and cost-benefit analysis. Students will use cost indices to complete cost estimations. Students will be able to make appropriate adjustments for depreciation and inflation.

This course provides the essential aspects of the "Project lifecycle" process from the initial conception phase through the completion phase of a project. Specifically, by focusing on the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) projects, students will be introduced to important concepts related to planning and financing a project, budgeting and scheduling, and managing and controlling a technical engineering project.

Focuses on society's interaction with water, air, and soil systems. Management of these major environmental components is examined, considering health and ecological needs and technical limitations. This course may stand alone as introduction to the current environmental challenges that we face, or as the foundation for further study in the field of environmental engineering. Prerequisites: CHEM 1410 or CHEM 1610

Lab study/basic principles in environmental engineering inc. reactor theory, fate & transport in the environment, wastewater treatment unit operations, climate change dynamics, & life cycle assessment. Lab, field, & online simulations will be used to produce data for analysis. Opportunity to develop design/experiments methodologies and to work in teams on written reports. Corequisite CE 2100

Basic concepts of mechanics: systems of forces and couples: equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies; analysis of structures: trusses, frames, machines; internal forces, shear and bending moment diagrams; distributed forces; friction, centroids and moments of inertia; principle of virtual work; and computer applications. Cross-listed as MAE 2300. Prerequisite: PHYS 1425 or PHYS 1420 or PHYS 1710.

Normal stress and strain, thermal strain, shear stress, shear strain; stress and strain transformations; Mohr's circle for plane stress and strain; stresses due to combined loading; axially loaded members; torsion of circular and thin-walled closed sections; deformation, strains and stresses in beams; beam deflections; column stability; energy concepts in mechanics. Cross-listed as MAE 2310. Prerequisite: CE 2300 or MAE 2300

Building a concrete canoe offers students hands-on experience with concrete mix designs and project management. Annual design challenge, set by the ASCE, evolves each year. Students apply the engineering design process to research, design, build, test and race a full-scale concrete canoe. Course will be offered as CE2720 for non-engineering students, focusing on financial, management, communications, and other tasks appropriate to their skills.

Course provides a hands-on overview in energy infrastructure as it relates to climate and the environment. Students will learn quantitative tools to analyze power, buildings, manufacturing, and transportation systems. The course will explore the broad impacts of the energy transition away from fossil fuels. Students will undertake an open-ended, team-based life cycle assessment project.  Prerequisites: CE2100 or CHE2215.

Covers topics related to hydraulics and hydrology, including complicated pipes designs, pumps, open channel, rainfall, evaporation, and surface runoff applied to stormwater and bmp design. Applications include water supply, drainage, flood control, and water control, and computer modeling. Prerequisite: CE 3210
