This course will develop foundational skills associated with the development and implication of geotechnical or environmental designs from a practitioner's perspective. Students will be introduced to environmental permitting and regulatory approval processes, effective methods to document and present an engineering design to various stakeholders, the components of a design package that a client and contractor use to inform construction/implementation, construction costing, as well as, the roles and responsibilities of the engineer in construction/implementation stage. (3.0 credits: term course delivered in one 12-week semester, 3 hours/week) PREREQUISITE: Graduate students in science and engineering must have a strong background in civil engineering design to take this course.
