Environmental Engineering (ENVE)

Description: Introduction to engineering design process through hands-on projects supported by instruction of underlying engineering science and fundamentals, model development, and the required tools. Be exposed to environmental engineering to know what it means to be an environmental engineer and an introduction to environmental engineering profession with focus on ethics.

Description: Introduction to material and energy balances on environmental systems involving physical, chemical, and biological processes. Primary focus on single phase systems.

Description: Introduction to the basics of microbes in the environment, including basic microbiological concepts, microbial environment, detection/enumeration/identification of microbes, microbial interactions with environment, microbial remediation of pollutants, waterborne pathogens, and wastewater treatment and disinfection.

Description: Practical application of the engineering design process in a team project focused on an authentic and comprehensive environmental engineering design project.

Description: Practical application of the engineering design process in a team project focused on an authentic and comprehensive environmental engineering design project.

Description: Covers fate and transport principles, such as interphase chemical equilibrium, the formulation and application of the advection-diffusion equation, and their specific environmental engineering applications.

Description: Introduction to sustainability concepts and sustainable engineering design processes for environmental engineers such as life cycle assessment, multi-criteria decision analysis, and analysis of renewable energy systems.
