Foundation Engineering

To gain proficiency in the geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations, using bearing capacity and settlement and structural and performance design criteria, respectively; to learn site characterization procedures including sampling and in situ testing to determine design parameters. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.

Elementary Fluid Mechanics

A basic understanding of fluid mechanics through the study of the properties, stationary behavior, and flow characteristics of incompressible fluids. The fundamental constitutive relations and conservation equations governing the pressure, velocity, and free surface elevation of the fluid. Hydrostatic forces, pipe flow, and open channel flow as examples of hydraulic engineering. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 240 or M&I-ENG 210, MATH 331, and M&I-ENG 230.

Structural Analysis

Introductory structural analysis. Calculation of forces, moments, and deformations for axially loaded and flexural structures including trusses, beams, frames, arches, and cables. Classical and computer methods used. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 241 or M&I-ENG 211.

Transportation

Transportation operations, planning, and design; emphasis on the highway mode. Topics include: vehicle, operator, and roadway characteristics; traffic control; capacity; geometric design objectives and plan formulation; demand forecasting; and economic, social, and environmental evaluation.

Co-requisite: CE-ENGIN 260

Statics

To give students a fundamental understanding of basic principles in engineering mechanics. Topics include force systems, the principle equilibrium of forces in two and three dimensional space, free-body diagram, centroid and moment of inertia of a solid body, etc. The fundamental principles are applied to solve problems of civil engineering systems, such as beam, truss and frame. Prerequisite: MATH 132. Corequisites: Physics 151 & 153.

Hydrology

A quantitative account of elements of the hydrologic cycle, including precipitation, evapotranspiration, snowmelt, infiltration, and surface runoff. Basic laws from such various disciplines as physics, chemistry, meteorology, astronomy, fluid mechanics, and thermodynamics, combined into simple mathematical descriptions used in the hydrologic design process.

Elementary Catalan I

This course is an introduction to Catalan for students with no prior knowledge of the language. Through a task-based, communicative approach, this course seeks to initiate students into the elements of reading, writing, listening, and speaking in Catalan.

ST-Intermediate Stat Computing

The goal of this course is to prepare students with necessary computing skills for a career as a statistician or data analyst/scientist. By the end of this course, you should be able to use various tools to extract data from different sources(structure or unstructured), and transform them into forms that are ready for analysis and modeling. You will also be able to build web based tools to deliver your data products using R Shiny.
