Course Description: Independent study or project research under the guidance of a faculty member. Offered as required. Prerequisite: As specified for each offering.
Course Description: This course covers the main designs and estimation techniques used in sample surveys: simple random sampling, stratification, cluster sampling, double sampling, post-stratification, ratio estimation, and non response and other non sampling errors. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using R statistical software.Prerequisites: STAT 3120.
Course Description: This course introduces main designs & estimation techniques used in sample surveys; including simple random sampling, stratification, cluster sampling, double sampling, post-stratification, ratio estimation; non-response problems, measurement errors. Properties of sample surveys are developed through simulation procedures. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics.
Course Description: Analyzes concepts in algorithm design, problem solving strategies, proof techniques, complexity analysis, upper and lower bounds, sorting and searching, graph algorithms, geometric algorithms, probabilistic algorithms, intractability and NP-completeness, transformations, and approximation algorithms. Prerequisite: CS 4102 or equivalent.
Course Description: A two-semester, multidisciplinary, capstone engineering design sequence; the primary objective of ENGR 4010/4020 is to provide students with a realistic and rigorous, culminating engineering design experience, which is reflective of contemporary professional practice. Key course attributes include the multidisciplinary composition of the engineering design teams (students and faculty from any department within SEAS, Commerce, Darden, Nursing, etc.), emphasis on aspects of modern practice (e.g. concurrent engineering, total quality management, and balanced consideration of the technological, organizational and cultural context) and realistic problems and client-stakeholders. A disciplined design/development process is followed that incorporates the important activities of contextual analysis, problem definition, customer needs definition, concept generation and selection, product specification, modeling and engineering analysis, proof of concept prototyping, design verification, cost analysis and project management and scheduling. Prerequisite: ENGR 4010; 4th year standing.
Course Description: Introduction to the analysis of the physical environment at the intersection of historical understanding and contemporary imagination. Prerequisite: Admission to the Master of Architecture or Master of Landscape Architecture Program - required for entry into the three year course of professional study unless waived by the Department Chair.
Course Description: Students will be introduced to current civil engineering challenges and emerging solutions. Research and practical case studies will be included. Participants will summarize and explore implications of introduced topics.
Course Description: Student-led special topic courses which vary by semester.
Course Description: This course will focus on key issues in adult psychological and physical development. We will explore development from a biopsychosocial perspective, examining topics such as health, cognitive function, personality, interpersonal relationships, and work. This will be a theory-to-practice class, with an emphasis on current theories of optimal or successful aging. In particular, we will focus on how adults respond and adapt to changes in their health, their environment, and their sense of self. Contexts for development will include education, health care, the family, and the community, with attention to individual differences (gender, race, ethnicity).
Course Description: Courses on variable topics that will help students adjust and adapt to college and learn about the many resources and opportunities available to them as they pursue their liberal arts degree.
Course Description: Courses on variable topics that will help students (1) identify and prepare for a major in the College and (2) learn about the many resources and opportunities available to them as they pursue their liberal arts degree.
Course Description: This action-oriented, team-based course will engage students in a live field project over the course of seven weeks and will build upon the required First Year curriculum. IDEA is an innovative offering grounded in the approaches of design thinking, agile project management, data analytics, effectuation, and lean start-up. The course is centered on team-based field projects addressing real world global challenges.
Course Description: This course will cover various topics in engineering entrepreneurship.
Course Description: This course introduces research methodologies within design and related disciplines. Students gather the appropriate resources and practice applying them to contextualize aspects of the built environment, learning techniques for conducting research and appropriate application of various methods. Students also utilize design processes to develop and refine research questions.
Course Description: Just as physics and math inform design, so can behavioral sciences, which offer rigorous and rapidly advancing insight into how people interact with their environments and with each other. This project-based course will expand students' design repertoires by connecting to psychology and related fields. This course is for "designers" broadly construed: those who wish to influence areas such as architecture, engineering, policy, and business.
