CEE 491 Engineering Hydrogeology and Groundwater Flow
This course is an introduction to Physical Hydrogeology and will examine fundamental physical processes affecting the flow of groundwater and contaminants in the subsurface. Hydrogeology is a multidisciplinary field that incorporates topics such as geology, hydrology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. We will be examining a wide range of topics including properties of materials (geologic and fluid), groundwater flow systems, fundamental groundwater flow equations, aquifer testing, unsaturated zone flow, groundwater/surface-water interactions, and contaminant transport. Emphasis will be placed on the application of theory and quantitative methods to solve practical problems. This course will provide you with an understanding of fundamental hydrogeologic principles and the tools necessary to investigate common groundwater related problems. Prerequisite ENGR 331
