CENG 5136G - Watershed Management (3 Credit Hours) Lecture Hours: 3 Lab Hours: 0 This course provides an introduction to the field of watershed management from an Environmental Engineering perspective. The course covers a wide range of topics that describe the most important aspects of watershed management including watershed assessment and the processes that control water quality in an urban and rural watershed. Fundamentals principles of environmental and water resources engineering will be used to understand the processes that control the transport and fate of pollutants in a watershed. The same principles will be used to develop processes and management practices to improve the water quality in watersheds. Topics addressed include: water quality regulations; physical, chemical, and biological processes affecting that rate and transport of pollutants to surface waters; nonpoint source pollution (NPS); and best management practices among others. The course is intended for seniors and graduate students who want to gain more experience in the area of Environmental Engineer and Water Resources. Graduate students will be required to complete advanced level assignments in areas beyond the scope of the undergraduate requirements demonstrating a higher level of mastery in the subject matter with additional required deliverables representative of graduate level work, as determined by the instructor.
Prerequisite(s): A minimum grade of “C” in CENG 3131 for CECM students. Approval if the student is enrolled in another program at Georgia Southern. Cross Listing(s): CENG 5136 . Restriction(s): NO Undergraduate Level Students
