摘要: |
Create and deliver an online course in sustainable transportation infrastructure. Currently, there are no such courses. This course would reside online at either the UW or WSU and be available for use by any TransNow or Region X participating University. Course content would focus on: (1) the concept of sustainability (2) systems for evaluating sustainability (3) specific materials, methods and practices eith in use currently or experimental that are more sustainable than current methods (4) an introduction to life cycle assessment and life cycle cost analysis for transportation infrastructure with an emphasis on roads and pavements. Many of our courses are lacking enough coverage of the sustainability idea and there is strong evidence that today's graduate and undergraduate students desire coverage and are interested in participating. The course would also be created for a state and local agency engineers and decision-makers audience. |
