Abstract:One of the desired outcomes of civil engineering technology education is to prepare students for the practice of civil engineering after they graduate. This requires developing student knowledge and competence in the use of standard design practices, tools, techniques, and computer hardware and software appropriate to their technical discipline. To accomplish this, technical courses must balance the coverage of engineering theory with engineering applications typically encountered in practice. Computer technol… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
