3.00 Credits
Ethical canons of the engineering profession require civil engineering graduates to be well-rounded effective leaders in planning, design, and construction of public infrastructure and the built environment projects needed to establish safe, healthy, equitable, and vibrant communities. Students apply civil engineering principles to determine appropriate design solutions for a comprehensive engineering problem, using applicable analytical methods of professional practice, to address intradisciplinary projects in civil engineering incorporating structural, environmental, geotechnical, and/or transportation components.

3.00 Credits
This course gives Civil and Environmental Engineering students real-world work experience to complement the classroom education that they have previously received. Interns will learn about the variety of issues facing today's practicing engineer. Interns will spend at least five hours each week working alongside senior-level managers in Charleston area engineering firms or engineering re- lated regulatory agencies coordinating these activities through the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Selected topics in civil engineering. The offering of this course will depend upon the interest of the student, the availability of an instructor, and the approval of the department head. Since the content of this course may change, a student may repeat the course for credit with the consent of the department head.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an introduction to the broad topic of sustainability and its application to engineering. A foundation of study on the historical perspective of sustainability leads to a focus on sustainable development, sustainable design. Prerequisites: BS degree in engineering or related field.
-
3.00 Credits
Engineering and science applications and socio-economic impacts of natural hazards on historic structures. Course provides thorough overview of design, rehabilitation, and other socio=economic decisions related to natural hazards and historical structures. Prerequisites: BS degree in engineering or related field.
-
3.00 Credits
Instruction in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) focusing on data analysis and application methods for engineers, planners and related professions. Fundamental topics include spatial analysis, geostatistical analysis, 3-D modeling, and vector/raster modeling. The focus of the course is on gaining a fundamental understanding of spatial data structures in GIS, geo-spatial data acquisition, geoprocessing, geostatistical methods; visualization, exploration of spatial data; network analysis, terrain mapping, spatial analysis, and modeling. The course will include specific emphasis on urban land use evaluation methods, transportation analysis (dynamic segmentation and routing) and hydrologic modeling. Prerequisites: BS in mathematics, science, or engineering, or permission from instructor. Familiarity with basic GIS concepts with and either ARC/INFO, ArcView, or ArcGIS highly recommended.
-
3.00 Credits
Design and analysis of instrumentation systems to monitoring of civil engineering infrastructure for the purpose of evaluating performance and/or design. Covered topics include principles of measurement, measurement errors and error analysis, instrumentation sensor types and calibration, data acquisition and signal conditioning, and data management. Prerequisites: CIV-330 or equivalent or permission from instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic characteristics of motor-vehicle traffic, highway capacity, applications of traffic control devices, traffic design of parking facilities, engineering studies, traffic safety, traffic laws and ordinances, basic statistical analysis, components of traffic systems, measurement of traffic data, characterizing traffic system performance, analysis of existing traffic facilities, and design of traffic facilities for achieving desired system performance. Prerequisite: CIVL 305 or permission from Department Head
-
3.00 Credits
Geometric design of roadways, at-grade intersections, and interchanges, using software programs, in accordance with conditions imposed by driver ability, vehicle performance, safety sustainability, and economic constraints.
