Green infrastructure, which integrates natural and engineered components, is becoming increasingly popular to manage water quality and quantity.  Green infrastructure examples include permeable pavement, bioretention basins, treatment wetlands and riverbank filtration.  This course covers the science and engineering related to green infrastructure design, such as open-channel flow, hydraulics and filtration.  Additionally, it investigates how such designs are realized, with attention to siting, specifications and effects on communities.  A case study approach is used to evaluate green infrastructure performance. Prerequisites: EGR 374, GEO 209 or GEO 301, or equivalent. Restrictions: Juniors and seniors only. Enrollment limited to 12.

[CE] JR/SR only; Prereqs: EGR 374, GEO 209 or GEO 301
