Hydrotopia: Water Resources Management in the West part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is an interdisciplinary water management course. It is co-taught by an engineering instructor and an instructor from humanities. Students experience class sessions involving traditional lectures, guest speakers, position paper debates, and design charettes. Students are required to complete numerous in-class exercises, homework, three position papers, and a team project.
Engineering Geology part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is a geology course that focuses on the core activities of engineering geologists – site characterization and geologic hazard identification and mitigation.
Groundwater Engineering part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
Groundwater Engineering is a lecture-based course designed to provide graduate students with both the background information and quantitative tools they will need to work in the water management and environmental consulting fields or to conduct related research.
Geology for Engineers part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is an introductory course designed for first year civil engineering students. Lectures, classroom exercises, discussions, indoor labs, homework, readings, and a long-term library research project are all components of this course. Field labs include limestone and coal surface mines, karstified terrain, and surficial and bedrock mapping.
Geology for Engineers/Engineering Geology part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This course emphasizes how geology is used by engineers so that they can coverse with geoscientists, read pertinent geoscience literature and identify geological problems in the field.
Water Resources Engineering Design (CIEN 560) part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is an upper level course for senior undergraduate and graduate students. The mode is fully lecture with a field trip and a design project. Students learn a series of design problems of water resources structures including open channel, reservoir storage, water supply system, and storm and sanitary sewer system.
Geological Engineering Site Investigation part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This course is designed to teach the skills needed to investigate subsurface soil and rock for engineering projects. Students learn drilling, sampling, logging, and testing methods, and they practice using geological knowledge to optimize site investigations.
Geology for Engineers part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is a lecture-based course designed to provide an broad introduction to geologic concepts and processes for engineers with no previous exposure to geology. Students complete a series of analytic assignments related to the topics covered in lecture and research a California geologic hazard topic to present to the rest of the class.
Water Resources Engineering part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is a lecture-based course that introduces students to a wide range of water-quantity (as opposed to quality) topics relevant to civil engineering design.
Life Cycle Assessment Modeling part of Integrate:Workshops and Webinars:Engineering, Sustainability, and the Geosciences:Courses
This is an interdisciplinary lecture and computational laboratory course where students will focus on the computational structure and data sources required to complete an environmental LCA. The course is delivered using a problem based learning approach, utilizing many of the LCA modeling software available.
