Master this deck with 22 terms through effective study methods.
Comprehensive guide to civil and environmental engineering covering sustainable infrastructure design, water resources management, environmental systems, structural engineering, and climate resilience...
The four organizing principles of the seminar are manifesto, translation, preservation, and analysis of architectural writing.
The seminar is structured with the first week focusing on familiarizing students with terms and rhetorical tactics through reading and analysis, followed by a short written analysis. The second week involves further analysis and a short paper that draws on discussed examples and personal experiences.
The primary goal of the seminar is for each student to analyze how architectural writing is constructed and to develop their skills in constructing their own writing.
CEE 32F focuses on exploring color and light as mediums for spatial perception, including the introduction of color theory, color mixing, and light analyses.
Objectives include identifying and refining research questions, choosing appropriate data analysis methods, and applying principles of effective visual and written presentation of research findings.
CEE 32F covers research ethics and navigating the publication process as part of its curriculum.
CEE 177S focuses on cultural, political, organizational, technical, and business issues related to implementing sustainable engineering projects in the developing world.
CEE 177S is a project-based course where students work in interdisciplinary teams to tackle real-world design challenges, focusing on implementation, evaluation, and deployment of designs developed in the previous quarter.
Key themes include performance, choice, evolution, integration, and implications for energy supply, competitive success, environment, development, and security.
Factor 10 Engineering is an approach for optimizing whole systems for multiple benefits, introduced in the context of the CEE 177S course.
Students will work closely with RMI staff, including Amory Lovins, cofounder and Chief Scientist of the Rocky Mountain Institute.
The XYZ course series is designed to immerse students in co-production for social change, covering scientific research, ethical reasoning, and practical experience with local partners on urban challenges.
The Autumn (X) course consists of four modules: participation in classes with experts, reading and writing assignments, fundamental data analysis skills, and lab sessions focused on Excel and ArcGIS.
Completion of the Autumn (X) course is a prerequisite for participation in the Winter (Y) and/or Spring (Z) practicum quarters.
The practicum quarters engage students in real-world projects with Bay Area local governments or community groups, applying the concepts and skills learned in the Autumn course.
The XYZ course series emphasizes skills in data-driven and qualitative analysis, as well as ethical reasoning and practical experience in urban systems.
Understanding color theory is important in spatial perception as it helps in the effective use of color and light to influence how spaces are perceived and experienced.
Social entrepreneurs play a crucial role in CEE 177S by partnering with students to tackle real-world design challenges, providing insights into the practical implications of sustainable engineering.
CEE 32F teaches various data analysis methods, particularly focusing on visual and written presentation of research findings, as well as fundamental skills in Excel and ArcGIS.
The seminar approaches the analysis of architectural writing by encouraging students to critically evaluate the construction of texts and apply learned principles to their own writing.
Interdisciplinary project teams in CEE 177S are significant as they bring together diverse perspectives and expertise to address complex challenges in sustainable engineering.
Expected outcomes for students completing the XYZ course series include enhanced skills in research, analysis, and practical application of knowledge to drive responsible systems change.
