Courses

Provides a simulated real world design and construction planning experience where teams integrate across multiple civil engineering sub-disciplines to create a solution that satisfies multiple constraints, including design, client requirements, budget, schedule, technical, regulatory, and societal. Final deliverables include: detailed design drawings, specifications, cost estimate, project schedule, construction plan, oral and written presentation. Prerequisites: Restricted to students with 87-180 credits (Senior) Civil Engineering (CVEN) majors only.
Provides opportunities for independent study at the upper-division undergraduate level. Students work on research or a creative project guided by faculty. May be repeated up to 9 total credit hours. Department consent required. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite courses of ATLS 3010 and 3020 (all minimum grade D-).
Provides opportunities for independent study at the upper-division undergraduate level. Students work on a small research problem or tutor lower-division computer science students. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite course of CSCI 1200 or CSCI 1300 (minimum grade D-).

Gives students the opportunity to pursue studies in engineering-related work experience projects abroad that allow them to explore the relationship between theory and practice in their major. Internships generally require 40 hours on the job per credit hour and evidence of significant learning (e.g., paper, final project, and employer evaluations). This course does not count toward degree requirements. Pass/Fail only. May be repeated up to 6 total credit hours.

Provides an opportunity for senior computer science majors to conduct exploratory research in computer science. Department enforced prereqs., successful completion of a minimum of 36 credit hours of Computer Science Foundation, Track Foundation, Track Core, and Computer Science electives, and WRTG 3030. May be repeated up to 8 total credit hours. Prerequisites: Restricted to students with 87-180 credits (Senior, Fifth Year Senior).
Provides faculty-supervised independent research in environmental engineering for students planning to complete a senior thesis. To be taken prior to EVEN 4990, during the final year before graduation. Department consent required. Prerequisites: Restricted to students with 87-180 credits (Senior, Fifth Year Senior) Environmental Engineering (EVEN) majors only.
Explores the fundamentals of simulating/analyzing civil and architectural environments with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. Run with two parallel sessions: fundamentals and applications, with fundamental lectures presenting the principles of CFD technologies, and application sessions demonstrating the application of CFD for resolving building and environmental engineering problems (different than MCEN/ASEN) with hands-on exercises. Same as AREN 5990. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite course of AREN 2120 and APPM 2360 (all minimum grade D-). Restricted to College of Engineering majors,with 87-180 credits (Senior, Fifth Year Senior).
Continuation of EVEN 4980. Consists of final phase of faculty-supervised research, the preparation of a written thesis, and an oral defense of the research to a committee. Prerequisites: Requires prerequisite course of EVEN 4980 (minimum grade C-).
Provides an introduction to the logical and systematic thinking required to evaluate and solve typical engineering problems in mechanics, electricity, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and light. Emphasizes understanding the physical behavior of systems and applying the principles and laws from the physical sciences to analyze these systems. Required for nonengineers seeking admission to the graduate technology management curriculum track. Not for degree credit. Non-EMP students require instructor permission. Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students in Engineering Management Program (EMEN) only.
Covers foundations for statistical reasoning and statistical applications. Topics include descriptive statistics, introduction to probability, random variables, discrete and continuous probability distributions, sampling theory and sampling distributions, statistical inference (point and interval estimation and hypothesis testing), and simple regression. All material taught is based upon case studies from business and industry. Not for EMP degree credit. Prerequisites: Restricted to students with 57-180 credits (Junior or Senior) or graduate students only.
Introduces finite element methods used for solving linear problems in structural and continuum mechanics. Covers modeling, mathematical formulation, and computer implementation. Department enforced prereq., matrix algebra. Prerequisites: Restricted to College of Engineering (ENGR) graduate students or Aerospace Engineering Concurrent Degree (C-ASEN) majors only.
Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students in Electrical Engineering (EEEN) or Electrical/Computer Engineering (ECEN) or Electrical Engineering Concurrent or Electrical/Computer Engineering Concurrent Degree students only.
Includes rigid body kinematics and spacecraft attitude descriptions, torque-free attitude dynamics, static attitude determination, motion and stability due to gravity gradient torque and spinning craft, passive and active methods of attitude control, nonlinear regulator and attitude tracking feedback controlaws. Recommended prereq., ASEN 3200 or equivalent or instructor consent required. Prerequisites: Restricted to College of Engineering (ENGR) graduate students or Aerospace Engineering Concurrent Degree (C-ASEN) majors only.

Devoted to building automation and control systems. HVAC control technology and strategies, measurement/device technologies, analysis/modeling of dynamic systems, simulation of conventional and advanced control approaches, assessment of control loop performance, hands-on direct digital control (DDC) programming exercises as used in current building control practice. Department enforced prereq., AREN 4140. Same as AREN 4010.

Provides a general introduction to the principles andmethods of technical management covering a variety of topics in leadership, strategic planning, product management, entrepreneurship, finance, value chains, management of R&D, and economic environments. Industry guest speakers provide real-life examples and applications. Required for all degree students. Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
Introduces students to the fundamental theoretical framework and tools used by economists to examine decision making under scarcity. Reviews mathematical economics and models. Examines consumer choice and firm supply. These two aspects of the market are brought together to examine how price and output are determined in competitive and imperfectly competitive markets. Introduces financial economics, network effects and public goods. Prerequisites: Restricted to students with 87-180 credits (Senior) or graduate students in the College of Engineering or Leeds School of Business only.
