This program guide presents civil engineering technology curriculum for technical institutes in Georgia. The general information section contains the following: purpose and objectives; program description, including admissions, typical job titles, and accreditation and certification; and curriculum model, including standard curriculum sequence and lists of courses. The next three sections contain the courses: general core courses (economics, composition, technical communications, college algebra, college trigonometry, calculus and analytic geometry, physics I-III, and introductory psychology); fundamental technical courses (civil engineering drafting I-II, descriptive geometry, computer programming, engineering technology professions, and computer-assisted design I); and specific technical courses (statics and dynamics, construction cost estimating, structural steel design/drafting, basic land surveying, reinforced steel design/drafting, basic land surveying, reinforced concrete design, senior design project, and strength of materials. Each course consists of the following: a course overview (description, competency areas, prerequisites, credit hours, contact hours); course outline with student objectives and class and lab hours; and resource list. An appendix to the guide lists equipment needed for the program. (NLA)
