4.00 Credits
Introduces students to the basic principles of groundwater flow in the subsurface, emphasizing the importance of groundwater as a resource. Topics include: the hydrologic cycle, history of groundwater usage, aquifer classification and properties, Darcy's experiments and Law, hydraulic head and potential, porosity and permeability, transmissivity and storativity, heterogeneity and anisotropy, saturated vs. unsaturated subsurface flow, and hydraulics of pumping wells (drawdown, flow in confined and unconfined aquifers, nonequilibrium flow conditions, slug tests, and aquifer-test design).
-
4.00 Credits
Chemical, physical, and biological principles that govern the behavior of toxic materials such as heavy metals and synthetic organic compounds in the environment. Course emphasizes practical ways to represent chemical processes in models of pollutant behavior. Topics include: adsorption of pollutants on soils and sediments; transport across sediment-water and air-water interfaces; bioamplification of pollutants; multiphase fugacity models of organics; case studies of contamin-ated surface water, sediment and groundwater. This course is the same as ESR 479/579; course may be taken only once for credit.
-
4.00 Credits
The fate and transport-related behavior of toxic compounds in the environment. Classification, nomenclature, examples of anthropogenic compounds, and case studies. Introducing the physical and chemical processes associated with air-water exchange, organic-liquid exchange, sorption processes, chemical transformations, and bioaccumulation.
-
4.00 Credits
Fundamental concepts of analysis for statically determinate and indeterminate structures utilizing matrices and computers; displacement and force methods applied to trusses and rigid frames; techniques for the analysis of large complex structures for static and dynamic loads.
-
4.00 Credits
Application of finite difference and finite element methods to the solution of soil-structure problems, stability of soil masses and foundation installation. Use of commercial computer programs in working applied problems.
-
4.00 Credits
Principles of flow and contaminant transport in porous media and application to problems of water supply and contaminant transport. Topics include: properties of porous media; Darcy's law and aquifer equations; solution for steady and unsteady flow problems; flow net analysis; regional vertical circulation; unsaturated flow; well dynamics and pump test analysis; surface-groundwater interactions; water quality and contaminant transport; transport models; transport in heterogeneous porous media and tracer test.

4.00 Credits
Emphasizes multiple lenses through which young people are seen and treated. Explores youth work principles, multiple youth work traditions, experiential/outdoor education, youth development, and other dimensions of youth work. Includes community-based component for application of theory. Intended for students planning careers in education, policy, and direct service with youth. Required course for Child & Family Studies Youth Worker specialization. Graduate students will participate in one hour of additional class time per week, to be scheduled with the instructor at the first class session.
-
4.00 Credits
Individuals preparing for human or social services professions have been influenced by family and societal events, values, beliefs, and assumptions which have interacted with their lives. Students will examine those influences (including gender, culture, and socioeconomic status) for the purpose of gaining insight into the ways their professional practice might be affected. Projects will include a “professional practice action plan.”
