PAGE 8 “Introduction to Environmental Engineering” Course Syllabus Course CodeCourse Category：Major Core Majors：Engineering Class (Grade II) Opening Semester：Fall Credit：2 units Textbook：Mackenzie L. Davis and David A. Cornwell, Introduction to Environmental Engineering (Fourth Edition), 2007. Teaching Aim This course is intended to provide students an overview of the fundamental aspects of environmental engineering. Introduction to environmental engineering with a focus on using the concept of materials and energy balance as a tool to understandingenvironmental processes and solving environmental engineering problems. Topics covered include the physics of water behavior above and below ground, water resources and treatment, air quality and pollution, protection of ozone layer, global warming, noise pollution, resource conservation and recovery of solid waste, hazardous waste management, and reduction of the volume of radioactive waste.It provides the fundamental science and engineering principles in relevant chapters, whichhelp the student analyze and understand the environmental engineering issues.Also, regulations will be discussed.
