Course Description

This course covers the multi-disciplinary Facilities Engineering functions, as would be found in a municipal public works department, university facilities engineering organization, medical complex, various State government agencies, departments of transportation, airports, port authorities, and facilities engineering organizations at both the installation level and the headquarters level of certain Federal Government agencies. Engineering practice in Facilities Engineering is by nature broad, requiring engineers to understand underlying principles of related engineering disciplines to address the cross-cutting issues in the practice. Facilities engineering as covered in this course begins with the planning phase and continues through the full lifecycle of buildings and infrastructure. Engineering topics include electrical and mechanical systems, structural and architectural features, electrical distribution systems, and protection from physical and cyber threats.
