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 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.
