Road Design and Surveying

This course introduces students to the concept of road location with particular emphasis on the design of the geometric elements of the road including horizontal and vertical curves. The course is comprised of two components; theory of road design and design by CAD. It is expected that students understand the interpretation of a surveyor’s field book for plan production and correct standards of plan presentation. Mission The mission of the MS program in Computer Science is to provide students with the knowledge and skills to become successful practitioners and leaders in the computing fields and to prepare them for further higher education in computer science. Program Educational Objectives The Computer Science department seeks to provide MS students graduates with: • Advanced knowledge in the Computing fields, which include theoretical foundations and fundamentals of systems and software; • A breadth of knowledge to establish a foundation for Ph.D. studies in Computer Science and related fields; • Required knowledge and skills to assume responsible positions in industry and government at the research, planning, and development levels.
