Requirements
Research & Technical Papers
Advanced Infrastructure Systems –
Advanced Infrastructure Systems is defined here to refer to innovative systems, components, devices and processes that improve the performance and/or reduce the life-cycle cost of a broad range of physical infrastructure systems.
Environmental Engineering, Science and Management –
The Environmental Engineering Science and Management (EESM) program in CEE at Carnegie Mellon is a comprehensive course of graduate study that addresses the macro-, micro- and nano-scale issues related to protection and restoration of air, soil and water quality, green product and process design, and environmental sustainability.
Green Design –
Green practices and responsible environmental stewardship will enable sustainable growth and a healthy environment. Engineers of the future require experience in addressing complex problems from various perspectives that can only be gained from interdisciplinary research and education that spans engineering, science, social sciences, and policy.
Mechanics, Materials, and Computing –
MMC has emerged as a new discipline involving a coordinated blend of insightful modeling of a wide variety of physical phenomena with the development of appropriate computational methods. With mechanics, mathematics, and scientific computing as its foundation, it addresses the numerical simulation of solid and fluid mechanical and thermal phenomena with a view toward the analysis and optimum design of engineering systems.
