Free Online Course offered by MIT OpenCourseWare: Introduction To Civil Engineering Design

This subject exposes students to civil engineering design. Students are expected to learn about the design process through practice and where possible through implementation. Some design projects will be team based and as such students need to learn how to work effectively with peers. Sketching and CAD (Computer Aided Design) will also be introduced. Students will start with the development of a portfolio documenting their design projects. The design principles introduced and some class projects will be used in follow-on subjects. The portfolio is a mandatory requirement for obtaining a B.Sc. in Civil Engineering.
