IC 3450 Traffic Engineering

By the end of this course, students will be knowledgeable about the concepts of planning, geometric project, and operation of traffic on roads, streets, terminals, and adjacent areas. They will have learned to diagnose the behavior of traffic and will be able to determine its current level of service and provide solutions for its improvement.

IC 3460 Assessment, Reconstruction, and Rehabilitation of Pavements

By the end of this course, students will learn different techniques for the assessment, maintenance, and rehabilitation of flexible and rigid pavements. They will be familiar with methods for the assessment of pavement quality. They will identify the types of deterioration present in pavement. Aditionally, they will be acquainted with the necessary procedure to implement a pavement mangement system.

IC 4110 Civil Engineering Final Evaluation Program

Students will develop a project similar to the projects they will encounter in their careers and which integrates the knowledge acquired throughout their undergraduate program in Civil Engineering. They will also learn to develop their professional responsibility, as well as their methodological ability to search for, process, and use information, formulate problems, design solution, and apply appropriate techniques.

IC 3350 Construction Machinery

Upon completion of this course, students will understand the functioning of different types of machinery. They will also analyze and plan the operation of this construction equipment for specific work. Additionally, they will carry out economic analyses calculating the costs, schedules, yields, amounts of equipment required, etc.

IC 3370 Environmental Engineering Laboratory

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to carry out the experimental measurements of different water quality parameters such as suspended and dissolved solids, pH, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), dissolved oxygen, turbidity, chlorine, etc. They will also be able to interpret the experimental measurements and evaluate the efficiency of a water treatment process.

IC 3375 Project Evaluation

The aim of this course is for students to apply theoretical knowledge related to Project Evaluation based on financial terms in order to argue decision-making regarding the acceptance or rejection of a construction project in accordance with the studies conducted during project development.
