Sustainability and Environmental Engineering Foundations

3 credits · Undergraduate Programs

Students will build upon core chemistry foundations and principles including chemical bonds, gases, solutions, acids and bases, quantitative relationships in chemical change. The course will also expand on organic chemistry and thermodynamic principles. Students will actively explore and solve problems related to core environmental engineering principles. Concepts of sustainability are introduced as they relate to engineering foundations. This course will integrate Indigenous perspectives in problem solving and includes contextual examples that build upon real-world examples and applications. Prerequisite(s): Admission to the Schulich School of Engineering Indigenous Pathways Program or consent of the faculty. Notes: Completion of this course meets the University of Calgary's Chemistry 30 requirement.
