This course is an introduction to the theory, methods, and applications of risk analysis and systems engineering. The topics include research and development priorities, risk-cost-benefit analysis, emergency management, human health and safety, environmental risk, extreme events, infrastructure resilience, system interdependencies, and enterprise systems. Prerequisites: Course in Probability/Statistics; Third or fourth year standing in SEAS; Or permission of instructor.

This class focuses on the next generation of buildings where smart devices, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, machine learning applications, and simulations platforms will be utilized to contextualize the changes in indoor environments and occupants¿ needs, allowing building systems (e.g., HVAC, lighting, blinds) to dynamically adjust themselves to enhance the indoor environmental conditions from the health, comfort, and energy perspectives.

The course emphasizes the formulation of environmental management issues as optimization problems. Simulation models will be presented and then combined with optimization algorithms. Environmental systems to be addressed include stream quality, air quality, water supply, waste management, groundwater remediation, and reservoir operations. Optimization techniques presented include linear programming, dynamic programming, and genetic algorithms.

Advanced topics in reinforced concrete design, including design of slender columns, deflections, torsion in reinforced concrete, design of continuous frames, and two-way floor systems. Introduction to design of tall structures in reinforced concrete, and design of shear walls. Prerequisite: CE 3330.

In this course, civil engineers learn to create resilient infrastructure that withstands climate impacts like floods, droughts, & heat. It covers risk assessment, managing uncertainty, and designing for climate adaptation, with a focus on water, energy, & transport systems. Students will use case studies to consider the effects on various communities, emphasizing equitable solutions, and complete a project on a climate challenge of their choice. Prerequisite: Fourth-year standing and APMA 3110 or APMA 3100

Team-based project course focusing on a design in a sub-discipline of civil and environmental engineering. Student participants will develop professional practice skills, such as project scoping, scheduling, cost-estimation, and appropriate technical communication, and visual representation of designs. Projects will continue in CE4992. Requisites: 4th-Year Standing in Civil Engineering

Study of a civil engineering problem in depth by each student using library, computer, or laboratory facilities. The project is conducted in close consultation with departmental faculty and involves survey, analysis, or project development. Progress reports and a comprehensive written report are required. May be repeated if necessary. Prerequisite: Contact individual professor for Instructor Permission.

Course equips you with essential knowledge & skills for managing complex projects. Navigate project fundamentals and apply hands-on techniques for successful outcomes. Master Critical Path Method for determining timelines & critical tasks, and utilize Resource-Based Scheduling to allocate resources efficiently. Gain practical experience with Oracle's Primavera P6 & expert insights from Plan Academy to enhance your scheduling software expertise.

An introduction to ground-water hydrology and contaminant transport. Topics include Darcy's Law, fluid potential, hydraulic conductivity, the unsaturated zone, the 3-D equation of ground-water flow, well hydraulics and pump tests, including the principle of superposition, the advection-dispersion-reaction equation, pollutant fate and transport processes, and numerical simulation of ground-water. Prerequisites: CE 2210, CE 3200 or equivalent.

Behavior and design of structural elements and systems, including continuous beams, plate girders, composite steel-concrete members, members in combined bending and compression. Structural frames, framing systems, eccentric connections, and torsion and torsional stability are also studied. (Y) Prerequisites: CE 3330 or equivalent.
