Learn to address the likelihood of structural failure. Perform risk analysis associated with environmental loads to structures under static and dynamic loadings. Master the basics of performance-based ...

Have you ever thought about how and why something was designed? Who was considered a “stakeholder” for the design? And what biases are baked within the process of designing something? These are some ...

At Northwestern Engineering, we do more than educate great engineers. We empower our students to become whole-brain engineers. This means integrating the elements of left-brain thinking — analysis, ...

Civil engineers connect science and society by planning, designing, building, and operating public infrastructure systems that support human activities, including roads, airports, bridges, tunnels, ...

McGill University credits General Electric with developing value analysis, also known as value engineering, as a practice during the late 1940s. Value analysis is a methodical approach to sharpening ...

Treat incident response as an engineering system—from asset-aware detection to repeatable analysis and post-incident learning—driving measurable improvements.

Utilize advanced techniques to evaluate structures. Advanced analysis is necessary for structures that are complex, exhibit finite deformations, are loaded beyond their first yield point, or ...
