2.00 Credits
Effects of chemical releases on human health; ecological risks. Application of risk assessment methodology, including hazard identification, exposure assessment, toxicity assessment, and risk characterization. Accounting for uncertainty in data during risk management, risk reduction and implementation of regulations and environmental policy.
-
3.00 Credits
Chemical principles and applications of those principles to the analysis and understanding of aqueous environmental chemistry in natural waters and wastewaters. The chemistry of ionic equilibria, redox reactions, precipitation/ dissolution, acid-base concepts, buffer capacity, complexation, hydrolysis and biological reactions. Prerequisite: CHM 31 or CEE 170.

Kinetics, reactor theory, mass balances, application of fundamental physical, chemical and biological principles to analysis and design. Prerequisite: CEE 170 or equivalent.
-
4.00 Credits
The role of microorganisms in the environment. Topics include: Survey of microbial classification, structure, and metabolism; study of microbes at population, community, and ecosystem levels of organization; the role of microbes in biogeochemical cycles; application of microbes to bioremediation and resource recovery problems. Prerequisite: EES 31 and EES 152, or consent of instructor.
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
A study of selected topics in civil and environmental engineering not included in other formal courses. A design project or an interdisciplinary study of a problem related to civil or environmental engineering may be included. Civil and environmental engineering students working on design projects involving students from other departments or colleges working in cross-disciplinary teams may be included. A report is required. Prerequisite: consent of the department chair.
-
3.00 Credits
Supervised design projects. Multidisciplinary teams applying the fundamentals of engineering science and the concepts of planning and systems analysis in the design of practical engineering works. The scope includes needs analysis, formulation of the design problem statement and evaluative criteria; analysis of alternative solutions and the generation of specifications. Includes most of the following considerations: economic, sustainability, manufacturability, ethical, social, environmental, aesthetic, political, health and safety. Practicing professional engineers are invited to serve as consultants. Written and oral reports are required. Prerequisite: Senior standing in CEE department or permission of instructors.
-
