Credits Independent study of special topics in hydraulics. Credits Applies basic principles of fluid mechanics to flows with a free surface. Analytical approaches to the recovery and reuse of waste materials. Credits Use of operations research and systems engineering techniques in analyzing and evaluating transportation systems. This is a continuation of CIEG-465.
Students become proficient in the use of traffic simulation and analysis software used in industry.
Several projects are assigned throughout the semester. CIEG-60l Industrial Wastewater Management 3 Credits Includes the study of waste disposal technology and problems associated with various industries, and methods of treatment, including economic and regulatory aspects. CIEG-604 Analytical Techniques and Instrumentation 3 Credits Analysis of classical and instrumental techniques for monitoring of air and water pollution including air sampling, atomic adsorption, spectrophotometer, and gas chromatographs. CIEG-607 Unit Operations and Processes 3 Credits Fundamentals and practical application of unit operations and processes in the design of treatment facilities. Interdisciplinary Courses Students majoring in transportation engineering are required to take specific additional program courses from the departments of Systems and Computer Sciences, Economics, Sociology, and Psychology to make up the 31 credit hours required for graduation.
