Class description
Course Title: 21st Century Civil & Environmental Engineering. Course Number: right now it's CEE 498N for administrative reasons. Eventually, this course will be called CEE 100 because that's what it is. We wanted an opportunity to show you what we think civil and environmental engineering (CEE) is today. We also thought that if you were interested in the field (from "seriously interested" all the way to "just wanted to check it out") you might want to know what we think it's like today. Thus, this course. Hey, we think CEE is geat and the possibliities are endless and we would like to show you what it is and what is isn't. So, sign up and join us as we talk about the field, its sub-specialties, careers, jobs out of college, tools of the trade and more. See you in class...
Student learning goals
General method of instruction
Presentations from department faculty, field trip, and a panel discussion on civil engineering careers.
Recommended preparation
Show up. Really. It's a lot easier that way. Plus, we think the class time will be well-spent.
Class assignments and grading
No textbooks and no intense assingments, just come with an open mind and lots of questions.
Class participation and short in-class assignments as well as field trip participation.
