CBE 343. Global Sustainability
– London
3 credits,
Wolf
6/23-8/1
CRN 3741; ID # CBE 34310 01
The course examines the growing need for
addressing
'sustainability' as a parameter in the practice of engineering. The
course
begins with an introduction of the origin of resources on earth and the
fragile
connection with life on earth both on the ecology and ultimately on the
human
population. The basic laws regulating the flow of energy
and
materials through ecosystems and the regulation of the distribution and
abundance of organisms is reviewed. Human population models are then
studied in
relation to available resources. These included the study of land and
agriculture in relation to food and water resources, non-renewable
resources,
energy, and capital.
EG 44421. Integrated
Engineering and Business Fundamentals—London
3 credits, Brauer, Dunn (10-0-3)
6/24–8/3
CRN
3128; ID #
EG 44421 01
Taught in London.
Integrated
Engineering
and Business Fundamentals is designed to provide a sound understanding
of the
business processes that engineering graduates will be involved with
either,
directly or indirectly, as they start their careers.
The
course addresses
four major areas of business processes: financial, business plans,
innovation
(project management, stage gate development processes), and supply
chain.
Weekly
required field
trips are taken to visit engineering centers and projects such as the
Thames
Flood Barrier, Sellafield Nuclear Fuel Reprocessing Plant, Astrium, and
Immarsat Satellite Control
Center.
