ENEC13013 Water and Environmental Design

Course details

Students undertake projects in water and environmental design, deliver project reports, and develop skills to communicate, work and learn professionally. They analyse catchments to determine urban and rural stormwater flows, flooding and water yield for storage. Based on these analyses, students design stormwater drainage systems and system components. They apply groundwater hydrology principles to analyse well tests and determine aquifer characteristics. They study the impact of human activity and the responsibilities of civil engineers in relation to ecosystem sustainability. Students select standards and tests for monitoring and controlling pollution and describe processes used to manage domestic and industrial wastes. Distance education (FLEX) students are required to have access to a computer and make frequent use of the Internet and will be required to attend a residential school to promote development of course learning outcomes.
