The education aspect of the Urban Water Center includes two graduate courses, Analysis of Urban Water Systems (CIVE 572) and Urban Stormwater Management (CIVE 573), taught by Dr. Larry A. Roesner. |
||
Analysis of Urban Water Systems (CIVE 572) Analysis of Urban Water Systems introduces students to how water is managed in the urban setting and provides students with the knowledge to understand and improve the methods through which urban water is managed. The course curriculum includes evaluating the applicability of water reuse (graywater, recycled water), analyzing and mitigating combined sewer overflows (CSOs), water and wastewater distribution system design, and evaluating the effects of rainfall-induced inflow and infiltration (RDII) in separate sewer systems. The course is taught from a practical perspective, utilizing existing models and techniques used by practicing engineers. |
||
Urban Stormwater Management (CIVE 573) Urban Stormwater Management educates students in the state-of-practice of urban drainage systems design, focusing on appropriate design methods that protect urban stream systems from a hydrologic, geomorphic and ecologic perspective. Students become familiar with commonly-used models and methods used in urban drainage design such as NetStorm and EPA Stormwater Management Model (SWMM). |
