STEM 509 - Environmental Engineering Design

[3]

This course is part of the UMBC Master of Arts in Education program with a concentration in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Students will learn the main areas of concern for environmental engineering including: calculations, ecological concepts, risk assessment, design and modeling of environmental systems and solutions to sustainability. Students will explore past environmental calamities focusing on causes, warnings, prevention, and responses. Students will participate in the design process to explore possible current environment issues and possible solutions. The students will also use the applications of environmental engineering design to K-12 classrooms through the development of case studies.
