Course Description
This course examines the role of the engineer as contractor and constructor, and fosters an appreciation of the relationship between hands-on engineering and theoretical teaching. Students learn to take responsibility for construction planning, processing, and production by practicing to work as an engineering firm. Through on-site experiences, they learn about construction projects from start-to-finish. The project involves forming construction firms of approximately 20 students to build a structure of significant scale in five days at the National Construction College.

Course Description
This course is a unified introduction to heat and mass transport phenomena. The focus of the course is placed on the basic physical principles and concepts underlying transport processes, their mathematical formulation, solution of the relevant equations and interpretation in physical terms. Problem solving is an integral part of the course. Illustrative applications involving physical, chemical and biological systems are introduced and discussed, both during lectures and via problems. Topics covered include: conduction, diffusion; differential formulation of transport equations, conduction/diffusion in planar, cylindrical and spherical configurations; Effect of heat generation, reaction on transport processes; Transient conduction and diffusion in finite media; Convective heat and mass transport: forced convection; effect of flow on transport processes; Transport coefficients; Combined convection and Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology; Conduction/diffusion processes; Macroscopic and differential energy/mass balances; Heat exchangers and their analysis; and applications of mass transport in biomedical and physiological systems.
