EV 890 - Environmental Engineering Systems Design I

1 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This is the first quarter of a capstone design course in which the student selects an environmental problem requiring resolution and proposes a comprehensive solution. The solution proposed must meet all technical standards and regulatory guidelines. Facsimiles of any necessary regulatory paperwork must be completed just as if the project were to be actually implemented. Requirements of the first quarter of the course include the following: (1) identify the objectives of the project; (2) perform a literature review; (3) develop primary and alternative solution strategies with consideration given to the relative risks and short- and long-term liabilities associated with each; and (4) prepare a work schedule detailing tasks to be performed during the detailed design and evaluation phase of the project in the second quarter of the course. The course will culminate with an oral presentation by the student providing an overview of the project before a faculty review committee. Selection of an environmental problem based on the student’s current or previous industrial work experience is strongly encouraged. Offered Winter term. (prereq: completion of all EV courses except EV 892  written consent of the MSEV program director)
