This course will review the most recent legislative changes that regulate a professional engineer in Florida.

This eight-hour engineering course addresses the maintenance and design of gravel roads. Unpaved surfaces make up a sizable percentage of both domestic roads, as well as roads abroad; therefore, the administration and maintenance of these road systems can be an enormous task. Most of the maintenance duties of these road systems fall on local authorities, although much of the remaining responsibilities lie with state highway agencies. 

This course provides an overview of the administration, maintenance and design, reshaping and rehabilitation, and construction considerations of gravel roadway systems. Special topics include drainage, erosion and control, windrows, superelevation, as well as other special areas of concern.

The objective of this course is to provide the student with information regarding the effect of energy in our society, and roles engineers can play in making sure we have a secure energy future. It assesses the future impact of each major energy source – oil, wind, solar, and nuclear – and it articulates a role for engineers in energy conservation.

This course is an introduction to the basic principles, major equipment, protection and control systems relating to high-voltage power distribution and transmission. In this course, you will learn the basics in constructing and maintaining a power transmission and distribution system, as well as various components of the system.
