Undergraduate Minors
Electing another course as your major does not mean you cannot learn about civil and environmental engineering. From civil and environmental systems, civil engineering and environmental engineering science, the three minors offered by CEE will expand your horizons and your education.
The Minor in Civil and Environmental Systems
The Civil and Environmental Systems minor is brand new for 2016-2017 and is unique because it combines principles and knowledge from across civil, environmental and systems engineering into a hyper-concentrated study focused on both the built and natural worlds.
The Minor in Civil and Environmental Systems consists of the following subjects:
1.011 Project Evaluation and Management
1.020 Principles of Energy and Management
1.022 Urban Networks
1.041 Transportation Systems Modeling
1.075 Water Resource Systems
1.101 Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design I
1.102 Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design II
The Minor in Civil Engineering
The Civil Engineering Minor offers subjects that reflect the wide extent of education that now encompasses the field, including solid and fluid mechanics, materials, and new labs.
The Minor in Civil Engineering consists of the following subjects:
1.035 Multiscale Characterization of Materials
1.036 Structural Mechanics and Design
1.050 Solid Mechanics
1.060A Fluid Mechanics I
1.060B Fluid Mechanics II
1.101 Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design I
1.102 Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design II
The Minor in Environmental Engineering Science
The Environmental Engineering Science Minor makes the popular Traveling Research Environmental Experiences (TREX) fieldwork during the Independent Activities Period (IAP) a program requirement, because field research has proved essential to the CEE educational experience.
The Minor in Environmental Engineering Science consists of the following subjects:
1.018AJ Fundamentals of Ecology I
1.060A Fluid Mechanics I
1.061A Transport Processes in the Environment I
1.070AJ Introduction to Hydrology and Water Resources
1.089A Environmental Microbiology
1.091 Traveling Research Environmental eXperience (TREX): Fieldwork
1.092 Traveling Research Environmental eXperience (TREX): Fieldwork Analysis and Communication
1.106 Environmental Fluid Transport Processes and Hydrology Laboratory
1.107 Environmental Chemistry and Biology Laboratory
