2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Math 3113 or equivalent. Consideration of the many spatially distributed parameters affecting such processes as transport and fate of contaminants, hydrologic processes, and many other environmental phenomena. Geographic Information Systems are increasingly used as an indispensable tool for analysis, management, and modeling. (Sp)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: graduate standing or permission. Introduction to ground water quality protection. Covers sources of ground water, ground water hydrology, ground water information sources, ground water pollution sources, subsurface transport and fate processes and monitoring of ground water systems. (F)
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: graduate standing in civil engineering, environmental science or geology, or permission. An applied course on hydrology dealing with environmental water problems; principles of hydrologic systems, their structure and components; methods of analysis and their application to various purposes of water resources planning and development. (Sp)
-
5.00 Credits
Prerequisite: graduate standing in civil engineering, environmental science or geology or permission. An applied course dealing with properties of aquifers, modeling of groundwater flow, groundwater hydrology and its interrelation with surface water, well hydraulics, pumping tests and safe yield of aquifers. (F)
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: graduate standing or permission of instructor. Develop knowledge of various environmental assessment methodologies or "tools", including assessments of socio-economic, physical/chemical and biological impacts at the pre-project, operational and post-project phases on human and non-human components of the environment. No student may earn credit for both 4863 and 5863. (Sp)
-
7.00 Credits
Prerequisite: senior or graduate standing. Water quality in lakes, rivers, estuaries; chemical, physical and biological aspects of marine and fresh waters; waste assimilation; system modeling; water quality management; waste load allocation, and engineer controls. (Sp)
-
8.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering 5573 or permission of instructor. Introduction to theoretical and practical issues of computer-based environmental modeling. Covers problem formulation, implementation, and application. Topical areas include conceptualizing problems, conservation laws, partial differential equations, numerical methods, and applications ranging from coastal hydrodynamics to contaminant transport. Emphasis on understanding the model process rather than using "canned" models. (F)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: senior or graduate standing or permission of instructor. Basic concepts of risk assessment and management process including hazard (risk) identification, dose-response and exposure assessment, risk characterization and evaluation, and risk management. Case studies and applications of concepts, with the orientation toward environmental issues and risk-cost-benefit analyses
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: graduate standing or permission of instructor. This course is responsive to the Clean Air Act Amendment of 1990. Included are topics related to air quality strategies for non-attainment areas, motor vehicles, hazardous air pollutants, acid deposition control, and stratospheric ozone protection. Information on permit programs is also covered. (Sp)
-
8.00 Credits
Variable enrollment, two to nine hours; maximum credit applicable toward degree, four hours. (F, Sp, Su)
