CEE 1302 - Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering
Credits: 3
Introductory course that emphasizes fundamental science, engineering, and ecological principles. Students develop their analytical and critical thinking skills with real-world problem-solving. Many of the hallmarks of modern society (e.g., high-rise office buildings, increased life span, the virtual elimination of numerous diseases, and reliable long-distance and public transportation systems) are the result of work by environmental and civil engineers. Likewise, environmental and civil engineers are at work on the many problems currently confronting developing nations: housing supply, food production, air and water pollution, spread of disease, traffic congestion, and flood control.
