  • COEN 1500 - CEAS First Year Seminar
    Primary Instructor - Fall 2025
    The CEAS First Year Seminar is a small, discussion-based course designed to provide incoming first-year students a foundation to thrive as university scholars, meeting with them from their first day of classes through getting back the results of their first round of midterms. The seminar is a combination of a common curriculum (40% ) exploring texts concerning creating an engineering identity, the purpose of an engineering education and the larger values of the college community (mattering, belonging, agency, ownership, inclusivity and service) and a unique curriculum (60%) in which faculty members cultivate these values through their own areas of expertise and interest. This seminar represents the commitment of dedicated faculty to help incoming first-year students become an active and contributing part of the intellectual, inclusive, healthy, inquisitive, diverse, sustainable and socially engaged culture of the College of Engineering.
  • CVEN 4133 - Land Use and Water Quality
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2026
    Principles, processes, and control of nonpoint source pollution. Particular emphasis is placed on non-point source (NPS) problems associated with urban runoff, agricultural influences on water quality, and impacts of mining and forestry. Surface and ground water pollution in diverse aquatic systems including stream, river, lake, reservoir, estuarine environments are considered. Students are exposed to a variety of structural and non-structural management principles. Recommended prerequisite: CVEN 4333, Engineering Hydrology. Same as CVEN 5133.
  • CVEN 4303 - Analysis of Urban Water Systems
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2025
    Examines water systems in the urban environment in an integrated manner. Focus is placed on analyzing the behavior of urban water distribution and collection systems using model applications. Students completing this course will be able to understand local urban water resources problems, effectively use complementary urban water models, and examine the interactions between water supply, drainage systems, surface water, and groundwater. Recommended prerequisite: CVEN 3323 (Hydraulic Engineering). Same as CVEN 5303.
  • CVEN 4333 - Engineering Hydrology
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2024 / Spring 2025 / Spring 2026
    Studies engineering applications of principles of hydrology, including hydrologic cycle, rainfall and runoff, groundwater, storm frequency and duration studies, stream hydrography, flood frequency, and flood routing.
