Post 2: Water Resources Engineering
I hope you all enjoyed the talk by Michael Knapp, PE, the Statewide Hydraulic engineer with the Alaska Department of Public Transportation. By Monday (1/27) at 8:00 AM, please post:
1. Your thoughts on the topic
2. A link to an article related to the topic (could be anything from bridges to water issues to erosion to climate change, etc.)
3. A brief summary/reflection on the article
You can post as a comment to this post as you all did last time, or you can create a new post (look in the upper right hand corner of the blog). The advantage to creating a new post is that you can edit your post (without having to delete and repost), include photos and format your text if you would like.

Post 1: Introduction
Welcome to ENGR 193: Engineering Seminar
This course is designed for students interested in engineering... whether you are already set on pursuing a degree in engineering, or if you just have an inkling that engineering might be for you. Or perhaps you want more information on what engineering is all about, and are interested in topics such as energy, infrastructure, technology, and sustainability.
The goal of the course is to explore the field through discussion, articles, and guest speakers. We are fortunate to have a number of practicing engineers who are willing to come into the classroom to share their experiences with you, the prospective engineer.
As part of the course, we will be using this blog to facilitate discussion about the speakers and the engineering topics they share with us.
To start, please post a comment with a bit of background about yourself, where you are from, and what interests or questions you have about engineering. Include a link to an article about engineering, with a brief summary of what you found interesting.
