Environmental Engineering (CVEN 301/EVEN 301) 

Undergraduate Course, 2024 Spring

Course Content: This course introduces the fundamental concepts of environmental engineering, focusing on the chemical, physical, and biological processes in environmental systems. Key course topics include chemical principles, mass balance and reactor models, risk assessment, water quality modeling, water and wastewater treatment technology, and air quality. By the end of this course, students will gain the knowledge and skills needed to identify, assess, and address environmental challenges, developing a solid understanding of the fundamental principles and their practical applications in the field of environmental science and engineering. 

Principles of Environmental Engineering Chemistry (EVEN 320) 

Undergraduate Course, 2024 Fall

Course Content: The goal of this course is to introduce students to fundamental principles and models that govern chemical processes in natural and engineered environmental systems. Key course topics include kinetic and thermodynamic models for aquatic chemical systems, qualitative and quantitative approaches for aqueous equilibrium problems, chemistry of natural waters and engineered systems, and structure, properties, and reactions of organic contaminants. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to apply these knowledges and models to various environmental engineering and science processes, including drinking water and wastewater treatment, the fate, transport, and remediation of inorganic and organic contaminants, carbonate systems in natural waters, and chemical reactions at the air-water interface.
