EGR 275 - Environmental Site Engineering and Design

3.00 credits.

The theory and application of geophysical imaging methods to the investigation of subsurface materials and structures that are likely to have significant engineering and environmental implications. A wide variety of methods including seismic reflection, seismic refraction, electromagnetic, ground-penetrating radar, potential fields, electrical resistivity, and borehold logging will be introduced and examined. Natural and man-made disasters will be discussed. *Prerequisite(s): PHY 202. Spring semester.
