CEE 274B: Microbial Bioenergy Systems (BIO 273B, CHEMENG 456)

Introduction to microbial metabolic pathways and to the pathway logic with a special focus on microbial bioenergy systems. The first part of the course emphasizes the metabolic and biochemical principles of pathways, whereas the second part is more specifically directed toward using this knowledge to understand existing systems and to design innovative microbial bioenergy systems for biofuel, biorefinery, and environmental applications. There also is an emphasis on the implications of rerouting of energy and reducing equivalents for the fitness and ecology of the organism. Prerequisites: CHEMENG 174 or 181 and organic chemistry, or equivalents.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3
Instructors: Spormann, A. (PI)

CEE 274D: Pathogens and Disinfection

Introduction to epidemiology, major pathogens and infectious diseases, the immune system, movement and survival of pathogens in the environment, transfer of virulence and antibiotic resistance genes, and pathogen control, with an emphasis on public health engineering measures (disinfection). Prerequisite: 274A.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3
Instructors: Criddle, C. (PI)

CEE 274P: Environmental Health Microbiology Lab

Microbiology skills including culture-, microscope-, and molecular-based detection techniques. Focus is on standard and EPA-approved methods to enumerate and isolate organisms used to assess risk of enteric illnesses, such as coliforms, enterococci, and coliphage, in drinking and recreational waters including lakes, streams, and coastal waters. Student project to assess the microbial water quality of a natural water. Limited enrollment; priority to CEE graduate students. An application form must be filed and approved before admission to the class.
Terms: Aut, Spr | Units: 3-4

CEE 275A: California Coast: Science, Policy, and Law (CEE 175A)

This interdisciplinary course integrates the legal, scientific, and policy dimensions of how we characterize and manage resource use and allocation along the California coast. We will use this geographic setting as the vehicle for exploring more generally how agencies, legislatures, and courts resolve resource-use conflicts and the role that scientific information and uncertainty play in the process. Our focus will be on the land-sea interface as we explore contemporary coastal land-use and marine resource decision-making, including coastal pollution, public health, ecosystem management; public access; private development; local community and state infrastructure; natural systems and significant threats; resource extraction; and conservation, mitigation and restoration. Students will learn the fundamental physics, chemistry, and biology of the coastal zone, tools for exploring data collected in the coastal ocean, and the institutional framework that shapes public and private decisions more »

Students will learn the fundamental physics, chemistry, and biology of the coastal zone, tools for exploring data collected in the coastal ocean, and the institutional framework that shapes public and private decisions affecting coastal resources. There will be 3 to 4 written assignments addressing policy and science issues during the quarter, as well as a take-home final assignment. Special Instructions: In-class work and discussion is often done in interdisciplinary teams of students from the School of Law, the School of Engineering, the School of Humanities and Sciences, and the Doerr School of Sustainability. Students are expected to participate in class discussion and field trips. Elements used in grading: Participation, including class session and field trip attendance, writing and quantitative assignments. Cross-listed with Civil & Environmental Engineering ( CEE 175A/275A) and Law ( LAW 2510). Open to graduate students and to advanced undergraduates with instructor permission. Enrollment limited.

CEE 276: Introduction to Human Exposure Analysis (CEE 178)

(Graduate students register for 276.) Scientific and engineering issues involved in quantifying human exposure to toxic chemicals in the environment. Pollutant behavior, inhalation exposure, dermal exposure, and assessment tools. Overview of the complexities, uncertainties, and physical, chemical, and biological issues relevant to risk assessment. Lab projects. Recommended: MATH 51. Apply at first class for admission.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3

CEE 276B: 100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything (CEE 176B)

This course discusses elements of a transition to 100% clean, renewable energy in the electricity, transportation, heating/cooling, and industrial sectors for towns, cities, states, countries, and companies. It examines wind, solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, tidal, and wave characteristics and resources; electricity, heat, cold and hydrogen storage; transmission and distribution; matching power demand with supply on the grid: efficiency; replacing fossil with electric appliances and machines in the buildings and industry; energy, health, and climate costs and savings; land requirements; feedbacks of renewables to the atmosphere; and 100% clean, renewable energy roadmaps to guide transitions.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3-4
Instructors: Jacobson, M. (PI)

CEE 277F: Advanced Field Methods in Water, Health and Development

Field methods for assessing household stored water quality, hand contamination, behaviors, and knowledge related to water, sanitation and health. Limited enrollment. Instructor consent required.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr, Sum | Units: 1-10
Instructors: Davis, J. (PI)

CEE 277Q: Data Analysis, Presentation, and Interpretation in Environmental Engineering (CEE 177Q)

This class is designed for students interested in pursuing research-based careers. It covers practical aspects of data analysis, presentation, interpretation relevant to the field of environmental engineering. Learning objectives include identifying and refining research questions, choosing appropriate data analysis methods, and applying principles of effective visual and written presentation of proposed research and research findings. Additional topics to be covered include preparing a constructive review, research ethics, and navigating the publication process.
Terms: Spr | Units: 3

CEE 279E: Wastewater Treatment: From Disposal to Resource Recovery (CEE 179E)

This course covers basic hydraulics and the fundamental processes used to treat wastewater. In addition to understanding the details behind the fundamental processes, students will learn to feel comfortable developing initial design criteria (30% designs) for fundamental processes. Students should also develop a feel for the typical values of water treatment parameters and the equipment involved. After covering conventional processes, the class addresses newer processes used to meet emerging treatment objectives, including nutrient removal, composting of biosolids and recycling of wastewater for beneficial uses, including potable reuse.n(Note this course was formerly CEE 174B)
Terms: Win, Spr | Units: 3

CEE 279X: Case Studies in Water Supply and Management in California and the West

This seminar will entail group discussions of issues related to sustainable water management in California and the West. After two weeks of background reading, the class will divide into small groups to prepare an in-depth case study discussion and 2-page fact-sheet of a current issue in water supply or management. The topics will be chosen by the groups. Possible topics are the future of desalination, direct potable reuse, ecosystem flows, managed recharge, agriculture and water subsidies, political tensions and water entitlements. Open to graduate students.
