CEE 598 class schedule data for fall 2017
CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
47399	Lecture-Discussion	EH	3:00PM -4:50PM	TR	Civil Eng Hydrosystems Lab	Garcia, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/28/17-12/13/17 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Environmental Hydrodynamics Section Info: Prerequisite for the course CEE451 Environmental Fluid mechanics or equivalent. Environmental flows will be systematically analyzed with the the help of scaling, dimensional analysis and turbulent boundary-layer theory leading to integral methods for solving flows such as contaminant plumes, density currents, thermal pollution, lake stratification, air-entrainment in spillways and salt wedges in estuaries. Integral methods will be developed to obtain engineering solutions and numerical modeling of multiple geo-environmental boundary-layer flows will be presented with the help of numerical tools developed for research and teaching. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
45663	Lecture-Discussion	GW	3:30PM -4:50PM	MW	Newmark Civil Engineering Bldg	Konar, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/28/17-12/13/17 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Globalization of Water Section Info: CEE 450 or consent of instructor. Educate students on social aspects of hydrology, with a particular focus on the water footprint concept. The globalized food system has enormous implications for water resources, which will be explored in the course, drawing from hydrology, engineering, economics, econometrics, and complex systems analysis. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.

43789	Lecture-Discussion	RTD	11:00AM -12:20PM	MW	Newmark Civil Engineering Bldg	Barkan, C Dick, C	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/28/17-12/13/17 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Railway Terminal Design & Oper Section Info: CEE 408 or CEE 409 or CEE 411 or permission of instructor. Students learn details of the design, operations planning, management and optimization of the terminal facilities required for the railway network to function as an efficient freight transportation system. Focus is on design of classification yards, intermodal facilities and bulk terminals, and how these facilities are organized into a network to provide different types of freight transportation service. Course includes a classification yard semester design project and field trip to observe a railway terminal facility. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
39919	Lecture-Discussion	SH	8:00AM -9:50AM	TR	Newmark Civil Engineering Bldg	Stillwell, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/28/17-12/13/17 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Stochastic Hydrology Section Info: Stochastic Hydrology Stochastic and statistical theory and methods in water resources, including data processing and analysis, characterization of hydrologic extremes, and geospatial analysis of water resources. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
