e-Learning Modules

Despite the clear need for collaboration between climate scientists and civil engineers to address and adapt to climate change impacts, there are limited post-secondary educational and training resources available to students at the climate science-engineering interface. To address this gap, the CSE, in collaboration with the University of Western Ontario, has developed eight e-learning modules at the science-engineering interface for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering and climate science students. These modules can be used in sequence or stand-alone and cover the following topics:   

  • Introduction to Climate Science and Modelling | Prof. Paul Kushner 
  • Regional Downscaling | Prof. Karen Smith 
  • Flood Risk | Prof. Reza Najafi 
  • Climate Change and Wind Loading | Prof. Oya Mercan 
  • Impact of a Changing Climate of Building Performance | Prof. Marianne Touchie 
  • Energy Systems | Prof. Graeme Norval 
  • Traffic-related Air Pollutants | Prof. Marianne Hatzopoulou 
  • Introduction to Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) | Prof. Daniel Posen
