Note Courses numbered within rhe 500 series are considered to be undergraduate courses but are intended to form a transition from the undergraduate tothe graduate programme in certain areas of Civil Engineering. They serve two major/unctions.
1} to provide technical electives for the undergraduate so that he may specialize in a particular area.
2}to provide background information for the graduate student when such is lacking. Courses of this series may be credited toward a graduate degree.
Graduate and Research Programmes
Both co-operative and conventional graduate study leading to the degree of Master of Applied Science (M.A.Sc.) or Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) can be undertaken in Civil Engineering. At present, there are five major areas of study in which specialization may be undertaken: Structural Engineering and Applied Mechanics, Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Water Resources and Sanitary Engineering, Transportation Planning and Engineering, and Hydraulics and Water Resources Systems Planning.
Structural Engineering and Major subdivisions of study are applied mechanics, structural mechan- Applied Mechanics ics, concrete structures, properties of materials, experimental mechanics, and stochastic systems. Graduate courses in this area are CE 605 to 635 inclusive; other courses may be offered in the 700 series.
Current research includes studies in structural stability and dynamics, large deflections of membranes, elastic and inelastic continua, structural response to random excitation hydroelasticity analysis and design of reinforced and pretressed concrete structures, structural optimization, computer aided design of structures, strength and safety of structures, analysis of latticed space structures, strength of pressure vessels, plastic behaviour of shells, mechanisms of fatigue failure in materials, longwave photoelasticity, photoelastic techniques in fatigue and flow problems, and nonlinear stochastic processes.

Major subdivisions of study in this area are soil mechanics, foundation engineering and engineering geology. Graduate courses CE 650, 658 and 664 are offered regularly. Additional special graduate courses may be offered if there is sufficient demand. Current activities include studies on the yielding of soils, settlement of structures, model testing, seepage and engineering geology.
Graduate course offerings in this area are CE 671 to 677 inclusive and CE and 791 and CE 792. Supporting courses are available in biology, hydraulics, hydrology, chemistry, and other related fields. At the present time, research involves work on the kinetics of biological waste treatment (aerobic and anaerobic), specific industrial waste treatment problems, the use of coal for waste treatment, evaluation of the applicability of trickling fitlers for waste treatment in cold climates scale-up in activated sludge, protein sparing in biological systems. Both laboratory-scale and pilot plant facilities are being used in these studies. Research is also being conducted in the areas of nutrient removal and solid-liquid separation. The Department has several well equipped laboratories that are used for demonstrations, teaching and research. Biological and chemical plant units are used to study and evaluate new methods to improve water and waste quality.
The available courses are CE 686, 687, 688, 689. 791, and 792. Courses in associated areas of fluid mechanics, soil mechanics, planning and economics are also available.
