Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI): Explosives Engineering Laboratory for Undergraduates (EELU)

工程-其他(59)这个项目正在实施一个实验室，以支持一个新兴的多学科本科生，辅修炸药工程。在对具有炸药专业知识的工程师的需求不断扩大之际，美国只有少数几所高等学府提供高能材料和炸药方面的学术指导。传统的炸药工程一直专注于在矿业中的应用。通过这个项目开发的炸药工程计划结合了化学和物理等基础科学的基础知识，以及机械、化学和土木工程的主题。正在利用实地和实验室仪器开发模块化实验室经验，以便其他机构可以将这些教学模块组合成一门满足其特殊需要的课程。课程模块还将在远程学习环境中进行测试。

Engineering - Other (59)This project is implementing a laboratory in support of an emerging multidisciplinary undergraduate minor in explosives engineering. Only a handful of institutions of higher learning in the U.S. offer academic instruction in energetic materials and explosives at a time when the need for engineers with explosives expertise is expanding. Traditional explosives engineering has been focused on applications in the mining industry. The explosives engineering program being developed through this project combines fundamentals in the basic sciences such as chemistry and physics, with topics from mechanical, chemical, and civil engineering. Modular laboratory experiences are being developed employing field and laboratory instrumentation such that other institutions can assemble these instructional modules into a course that meets their particular needs. Course modules will also be tested in a distance learning environment.
