Formal Oral Presentation (Throughout the semester) Course outcomes: 1. Participate in all aspects of a team project [contributes to SO 2, 3, 5, 6]. 2. Perform the design of a complex civil engineering system [contributes to SO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. 3. Present the results of the design project in a formal, written report [contributes to SO 2, 3, 5, 6]. 1 . Report the results of the design project in a formal oral and graphical presentation [contributes to SO 2, 3, 5, 6]. Relationship of Course to Student Outcomes:

This course contributes to the following program outcomes: 1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. (R) 2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors. (R) 3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences. (R) 4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed Jjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts. (R) 5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives. (R) 6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions. 7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies. (R) Class/laboratory schedule: 150 minutes of meetings per week Contribution of course to professional education: This course is the capstone course, which prepares students to work professionally in the field of civil engineering.
