Course Description
This course covers engineering design and encourages students to develop their engineersmanship. There is more to design than analysis and following codes, and students discover that it is a creative and innovative process. Many parts of the civil and environmental engineering curriculums involve mechanistic and law-like solutions to problems, guided by text books and design standards. Rapid urbanization around the world means problems are becoming more complex and unexpected requiring solutions for which text books and design standards are of limited use.
