This course is an overview of sustainable strategies for safe water supply in off-the-grid, low-income regions. Topics covered include water quality and treatment, sustainability and WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene). A major element of the course is a project to solve a water-related issue in a real-world context. Cross-list: CEVE 314, GLHT 314. Repeatable for Credit.

Civil and Environmental Engineers (CEVEs) engage in the planning, design, construction, operation, and analysis of infrastructure systems that form the backbone of cities and societies. CEVEs work at the dynamic interface of the built environment, data systems, and natural environment on topics like smart cities and resilient infrastructure, sustainable energy and buildings, disaster resilience, automated transportation systems, climate change, and water management. In this course, students will explore how data science, environmental science, structural design, and systems thinking can be integrated to promote sustainability, resilience, and equity. Through a mix of technical lectures, topical seminars on applications and ideas of interest, and team-based projects, students will develop an understanding of the broad field of civil and environmental engineering and its applications.

The objective of this course is to develop skills in formulating and solving problems of societal development and advancement in light of increasing material, energy and water demands and decreasing resource availability. Sustainable design requires balancing economic, ecological/environmental and social issues to create physical as well as social structures that will work for current and future generations. In addition to learning to apply sustainable design principles to individual engineering and developing projects, students will be challenged to understand the application of sustainable design thinking a the municipal and corporate level. Cross-list: CEVE 502, ENGI 302. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for CEVE 302 if student has credit for CEVE 502.
