Examines the basic physical, chemical, and microbiological principles that provide the foundation for environmental engineering. Illustrates how these principles are applied to solve a wide range of environmental problems.
Specific Course Objectives :
Apply engineering principles to practical environmental problems
Solve environmental problems using mass and energy balances
Develop conceptual models that integrate a range of environmental phenomena
Convert conceptual models into mathematical models
Solve simple mathematical models and use resulting equations to make predictions of relevance to environmental engineers
Analyze and interpret experimental data to elucidate fundamental phenomena
