New CE 198: Civil and Environmental Engineering Professional Certification II (DeCal)

Don't miss the opportunity to take CE 198 in spring 2009!

CEE Advisory Council members, Dr. Rudolph Bonaparte and Dr. Michael Kavanaugh, along with CEE alumni, Dr. Rula Deeb (CE MS '94, PhD '99) and Dr. Chris Hunt (CE BS '93, MS '95, PhD '00), have helped to develop an exciting new syllabus for DeCal class CE 198: Civil and Environmental Professional Certification II. CE 198 is one of the components of the new Professional Development Certificate Program. CEE undergraduate and ASCE external vice president, Anu Sridharan, was instrumental in conceptualizing the class, and spearheading the effort to recruit excellent speakers that will make this course invaluable to CEE students. Anu, along with Charlotte Wong, are the co-leaders of CE 198 for spring 2009.

CE 198 is a DeCal class and as such, is organized and run by students, under the sponsorship of a faculty member. CE 198 will consist of a series of lectures by friends from industry and government who will provide 30-minute presentations followed by a facilitated class discussion on the lecture topic. The objective of this course is to help students think critically about their careers, their goals, and some of the skills they will need to develop to be successful in the civil and environmental engineering industry.

CE 198 will meet on Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00 p.m. in 406 Davis Hall, beginning February 18. Students who wish to take the course should attend the first class.
