Overview of Civil Engineering and Architecture

This unit begins with an overview of the history of civil engineering and architecture. In addition, in the first lesson, students will learn about the principles and elements of design and architectural styles. Students will then create a model of an architectural feature. In the second lesson students are introduced to careers in civil engineering and architecture before creating a career video in which they portray a chosen career path. Students participate in a design charrette for a hypothetical design project in which each student in the group acts as a different design professional.
