Prerequisites: ENCE 330 and permission of department.
Course Description: Application of theoretical, experimental and computer simulation techniques in the design of open channels and conveyance structures including transitions, spillways, culverts, wiers, and bridge openings. Uniform and non-uniform flows under subcritical or supercritical conditions. Analysis of unsteady, spatially varied overland and channel flows. Laboratories will emphasize techniques to improve understanding of complex flow phenomena and to provide design information.

Instructor: Claire Welty
Course Description: Learning objectives for this course: (1) to understand the use and occurrence of groundwater in the US; (2) be able to quantify flow of groundwater in aquifers and unsaturated soils; (3) design and evaluate laboratory tests to determine porous media parameters; (4) design and evaluate field tests to determine aquifer parameters; (5) understand the physical basis and its relationship to mathematical modeling of contaminant transport in aquifers.

Prerequisites: ENCE 433 and permission of instructor.
Course Description: Application of principles from chemical thermodynamics and kinetics to the study and interpretation of the chemical characteristics of natural water systems. Explanation of the chemical composition of natural waters from a consideration of metal ion solubility controls, ph, carbonate equilibria, absorption reactions, redox reactions, and the kinetics of oxygenation reactions which occur in natural water environments.

Course Description: An examination of biological principles directly affecting man and his environment, with particular emphasis on microbiological interactions in environmental engineering related to air, water and land systems; microbiology and biochemistry of aerobic and anaerobic treatment processes for aqueous wastes.
