LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT |
At the end of this course, the students; 1) An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering, to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems. 2) An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. 3) Students improve their presentation techniques as well as report writing skills. 4) The final design or advance design of projects are shared with the department through posters displayed at the department boards.

COURSE DEFINITION | The design process in civil engineering is an open-ended set of operations that ultimately create an object or system whose utility meets pre-defined engineering, economic and esthetic criteria. This creative process requires application of fundamental knowledge given in previous courses, innovation and consistent endeavor that is best implemented when more experienced engineers who serve as mentors continuously guide the student. The objective of these two successive courses (CE 411) is to introduce the students to the design environment that they are likely to encounter in practice. At the completion of each course, students working in groups under the guidance of a faculty member are required to produce a demonstrable concept, an output that conforms to the accepted norms of civil engineering. The work groups are required to present their work in detail to their peers, and to prepare a poster for Design Project Exhibition at the end of the spring semester where their work is succinctly summarized. |
