-
3.00 Credits
Three hours of lecture/seminar/discussion per week. Two field trips. Hands-on construction, operation and monitoring of ecological treatment systems. Emphasizing constructed wetlands and ponds for wastewater treatment and reuse, with minor topics selected by students. Design exercises for treatment of sewage, stormwater runoff, landfill leachate, or agricultural wastewater. Fall. Prerequisite: ERE 440 or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. A curriculum capstone course designed to integrate other coursework with a systematic approach to real life engineering problems. Semester-long laboratory projects are selected to provide experience in dealing not only with technical and economic constraints, but also with environmental, social, legal and political aspects of the planning process. Spring. Prerequisite: Senior status in forest engineering.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Independent research in topics in forest engineering for the highly motivated undergraduate student. Selection of subject area determined by the student in conference with appropriate faculty member. Tutorial conferences, discussions and critiques scheduled as necessary. Final written report required for departmental record. Fall, Spring and Summer. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor.
-
1.00 Credits
One hour of lecture/discussion per week. Jointly taught by ESF Student Affairs staff and faculty in forestry. Student Affairs provides an introduction to ESF and to skills necessary for success. The faculty member briefly describes forestry, what it is, what foresters do, the social contract with the public, the role of forestry and foresters as professionals, and the integration of biophysical, socio-economic and ethical dimensions of forest resource management. Required of freshmen in the Forest Resources Management and the Dual EFB/FOR programs. Fall.
