    Considers constitutive behavior of cohesive and cohesionless soils including stress-strain, strength, pore water pressure, and volume change behavior under drained and undrained loading conditions. Also includes linear and nonlinear analysis techniquesand determination of constitutive properties in the laboratory. Department enforced prereq., CVEN 5708 or instructor consent required.

    Interdisciplinary reading of innovative theories and methodologies of cognitive science. Participants share interdisciplinary perspectives through in-class and online discussion and analysis of controversial texts and of their own research in cognitive science. Required for joint Ph.D in cognitive science. Same as EDUC 6505, LING 7762, and PSYC 7765. Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
    Reading of interdisciplinary innovative theories and methodologies of cognitive science. Students participate in the ICS Distinguished Speakers series that hosts internationally recognized cognitive scientists who share and discuss their current research. Session discussions include analysis of leading edge and controversial new approaches in cognitive science. Same as LING 7775, PSYC 7775, EDUC 7775, SLHS 7775, and PHIL 7810. Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
    Addresses a different set of one to three topics each year. For each topic, one or two faculty members of the Institute of Cognitive Science present background material and current research. May be repeated up to 6 total credit hours. Prerequisites: Restricted to graduate students only.

    Topics include soil mineralogy, formation of soils through sedimentary processes and weathering, determination of soil composition, soil water, colloidal phenomena in soils, fabric property relationships, analysis of mechanical behavior including compressibility, strength and deformation, and conduction phenomena in terms of physicochemical principles. Involves applications for stabilization and improvement of soils, and disposal of waste materials. Department enforced prereq., CVEN 3718 or instructor consent required.
