Teaching

COURSES AT NJIT:

CE 645 - ROCK MECHANICS (3 CREDITS)

This graduate course focuses on theoretical and experimental rock mechanics and rock engineering with laboratory measurements and field testing of rocks. Students also learn the mechanics of discontinuous media, such as flow through discontinuous media  (thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical processes) and hydraulic fracturing.


CE 644 - APPLIED ENGINEERING GEOLOGY (3 CREDITS)

This graduate course helps students learn how to apply engineering principles to predict and mitigate natural and artificial geo-hazards, including the availability, selection, and use of geomaterials. The course also explores at field scale the engineering impacts of natural geologic hazards, including landslides, sinkholes, earthquakes, and subsiding geomaterials.


CE 662 - ENERGY FROM UNDERGROUND RESOURCES (3 CREDITS)

This graduate course provides students with fundamental and applied engineering knowledge critical for identifying, designing, and harnessing various economically valuable materials from deep underground.


CE 463 - ENERGY GEOTECHNICS AND SUSTAINABILITY (3 CREDITS)

This undergraduate course provides basic knowledge on the application of geotechnical and energy engineering principles in the design and analyses of thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical processes encountered in extracting, exchanging, storing, and protecting underground energy resources, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate global climate change.



COURSES AT HOPE COLLEGE:

ENG 346 - FLUID MECHANICS (3 CREDITS)

This undergraduate course focuses on the properties of a fluid and the concepts of fluid statics, the integral and differential analyses of fluid motion, and incompressible flows. Applications of these concepts to various engineering situations, such as propulsion systems, aerodynamics, and piping systems, are also examined.


ENG 224 - MECHANICS OF MATERIALS LAB (1 CREDIT)

This undergraduate course introduces students to fundamental concepts in mechanical testing to determine the basic mechanical properties of a range of materials, including metals, woods, composites, and elastomers.
