CAEE 202 Introduction to Civil, Architectural & Environmental Engineering 3.0 Credits
This course introduces the planning, design, construction, operation, maintenance and documentation of engineering projects that are in unique social, topographic, environmental and geologic settings. The scope and principles of Civil, Architectural and Environmental engineering practice are each presented as well as the relationships between the three disciplines. The concepts are illustrated through laboratory projects, case studies, field trips and field measurement exercises. The course also addresses professional ethics, practice and licensure.
