CEE 498 CIO - Civil Information Systems

Last offered Spring 2015

Official Description

Subject offerings of new and developing areas of knowledge in civil and environmental engineering intended to augment the existing curriculum. See Class Schedule or departmental course information for topics and prerequisites. Course Information: 1 to 4 undergraduate hours. 1 to 4 graduate hours. May be repeated in the same or separate terms if topics vary.

Section Description

Restricted to online non-degree, online MCS, online MSAE, online MSME, and online MSCE students. Center for Innovation in Teaching & Learning (CITL) restrictions and assessments apply, see http://www.citl.illinois.edu. For more details on this course section, please see http://engineering.illinois.edu/online/courses/. Non-Degree students may enroll on a space-available basis with consent of Program Coordinator, Meg Griffin (mgriffin@illinois.edu).

Subject Area

  • Civil and Environmental Engineering

Course Description

This course introduces students to experimental instrumentation, acquisition, processing, and storage of CEE-based data at multiple scales of volume, variety, velocity, and veracity; it will also provide a thorough overview and equip students with a working knowledge of modern informatics (e.g., GIS, cloud computing, etc.) as applied to the domain of civil and environmental engineering. Students will analyze and develop sensing and informatics-based solutions to open-ended design problems in primarily cyber-physical system areas of construction management and materials, environmental engineering and science, environmental hydrology and hydraulic engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, and transportation engineering.

Credit Hours

4 hours

Prerequisites

The course projects may be able to stimulate new research topics; therefore, this course will be of significance to graduate students and the greater CEE research environment. This course may also be suitable for students from other related disciplines (e.g., computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, biological and agricultural engineering).
