Students should be familiar with these principles, and a background in physics and integral calculus is required. Weekly laboratories will be used to experimentally test the fundamental theoretical principles and equations developed in class. The course is particularly important for those students interested in careers in hydraulics, hydrology, or environmental engineering, and is a significant component of the FE exam. 100 pts Attendance, participation, and effort will play a role in your final grade. More than two unexcused absences from class are highly discouraged.
Attendance is required at all laboratories.
All exams are closed book and notes, but I will allow you to bring one sheet of equations. All necessary fluid properties will be provided. The exam problems will be very similar to your homework problems. Homework and Laboratory Keeping up with the homework is critical to success in this course. Homework assignments will be given each week and will be due each Friday.
