Message-ID: <46132F9B.7030600@ucalgary.ca> This Thursday, April 5, between 4 and 8 pm the departments will be making their "sales pitch" to the first year students. This will consist of brief presentations and setting up booths in the foyer and halls between ENA 201 and ICT. We'd like to have some students at our booth to answer questions the first years might have from a student perspective. Faculty members will also be present and will be handling the formal presentation. So if you have a little (1-2 hours) to spare on Thursday to be at the Civil booth anytime between 4 and 8 pm, please let me know by the end of the day Wednesday. There will be pizza around 7 pm for volunteers, and you will be entered in a draw for a bookstore gift card. thanks! -- ======================================================= Shelley Lissel, Ph.D., P.Eng.

These two possible independent projects are the Concrete Mix Design for the slab and the design of the Superstructure. Please note, there are several limitations to taking one of these independent courses. -The concrete mix design may only be pursued by those who have already completed ENCI 513 (Concrete and Masonry) or an equivalent course. -The independent course associated with the superstructure may only be taken by those who have completed ENCI 451 (Yay for Structures!). -Additionally, these courses are currently only open to those NOT in a Minor. Only those taking ?general? Civil may choose to pursue these courses. -Each independent course may only take 1 student, which is subject to the acceptance of the Professor associated with that independent course. For more information, please contact Dr. Lynne Cowe Falls.
