This course will focus on the challenges and problems facing local public works directors and city/town engineers. Such problems are often associated with the planning, design, siting, construction, rehabilitation, and operation of water treatment, water supply, and landfill facilities; bridges, roadways, and public transit systems; parks and recreational areas; electrical, gas and other power/energy utilities; and other physical infrastructure systems.

In this course students will create a professional portfolio. They will set goals, explore interests and passions, learn how to build a campus support network, create a cover letter and resume, learn interviewing techniques (including etiquette), meet alumni, and practice interviewing for a career of interest. This course includes several experimental components that will enable students to be evaluated on their ability to market themselves prior to an actual job search.

This course fulfills the University's Junior Year Writing Requirement for students in the College of Engineering. Students will be introduced to traditional technical and scientific writing forms, including outlines, summaries, mechanical and technical descriptions, extended technical definitions, research reports, and proposals. Grammar review, oral presentations and on-line research are significant components of this course. Students will also investigate ethics in engineering practice and research.

Modern and classic experiments performed with up-to-date techniques. Course complements 400-level physics courses, and satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BA-Physic and BS-Physic majors. Prerequisites: introductory physics with labs (PHYSIC 181-182, 283, 284, 285, 286, or equivalent), or consent of instructor.

This course will examine the emerging hypothesis of fatigability and bioenergetics in aging.

The purpose of this seminar course is to explore current topics in the field of evolutionary genetics. Emphasis will be on advances that have come about in the last decade, focusing on how recent genomic approaches have contributed to longstanding evolutionary questions. Each week?s readings will focus on a particular topic and will often include a combination of review articles and empirical studies.
