§  Student co-op evaluation data is obtained from students at the end of their co-op experience regarding the students’ perception of their performance.

§  Senior Exit Survey are given every year to determine how well students feel they have achieved the student outcomes.

§  Summary of student performance is gathered in the form of final grades of the water resources engineering courses.

§  Evaluation of student data, specifically of transcripts for each graduate, is analyzed for time to graduation and retention rate as well as performance in water resources engineering courses.

§  Embedded assessment is performed in every class, every year. Not all student outcomes are evaluated in every single class but a representative sample is chosen. This will be accomplished by assess student assignments, quizzes, examinations, laboratory reports, projects, and presentations.

together within the context of engineering applications.

5-To build up a strong background knowledge for the next engineering courses such

as fluid mechanics, strength of materials, structural analysis etc…

determinate structures.

c. Find the internal forces and their types in the members of statically determinate

truss by both joint method and section method.

d. Determine the centroids of line, area, and volume.

e. Calculate the moment of inertia of area of any shape and can transfer it to any

axis.

f. Describe the motion of particle at any moment (displacement, velocity and

acceleration) That is moving on linear or curvilinear path. The motion of

projectiles can also be solved.

g. Resolve the motion of particle by rectangular ,tangential-transverse and polar

coordinates,  respectively.

HIGHER EDUCATION  PERFORMANCE REVIEW: PROGRAM REVIEW

University of Baghdad

This course appraises the characteristics, properties, applications and behaviour (including strengthening mechanisms) during processing, fabrication, and service of a wide range of engineering materials, evaluate the effects of stress, fatigue, creep, corrosion, and wear on material, examine forms and effects of corrosion in metals and review the main methods of corrosion prevention, systematically apply and justify procedures used in the failure analysis of a Component, systematically specify and justify suitable material(s) for a given application, and including the use of relevant material selection methodologies.

The aim of this course is to get the students acquainted with the correlation between material behaviour and material properties. In engineering, designs are put into practice by making use of materials. As the student gets to know the mechanisms and concepts that determine the material behaviour, (s)he will have the required knowledge to make an optimal material choice. Finally, the student will understand how properties of the material can be optimized by adapting the material processing and consequently change the structural characteristics of the material.

students and on campus. They attend full day program in face-to-face mode.  The academic year is composed of 30-week regular subject

The main goal of this course to learn the student that water is one of the most precious and a finite resources that is essential for agriculture, industry and human existence and the life in Iraq since eternity depends on the waters of its two great rivers: The Tigris and the Euphrates but its geographical location being the lower riparian state, is placing it in an embarrassing situation because it is negatively affected by the multi-purpose Turkish project constructed or planned to be constructed without a prior consultation with Iraq. Therefore this course is designed to alert

Students to the problem of water shortage in Iraq and how to save them and to conserve while providing necessary quantities as well as conserve the environment

a.       Know the sources of water resources.

b.      know the water resources in Iraq.

c.       Know that  Iraq is primarily dependent for its  water resources  on the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, both these rivers are formed in turkey.

d.      study the path of the Euphrates and Tigris with its tributaries.

e.       know the project being constructed at present and are planned to be constructed in the future by Turkey on the Tigris and Euphrates rivers will lead to a grave deficiency in the quantity of waters in flowing into Iraq and to their low quality so there a problem of water shortage and the state has developed a policy to keep the water viewed by students.

f.        Capable al understand how to transfer irrigation water through irrigation water network at all levels and distribution in the field in different ways such as Subsurface irrigation, Surface irrigation, Sprinkler and Drip irrigation and learn the advantages and disadvantages each methods and learn the criteria that determine the quality of potable water for irrigation

h.      know types and benefits for structures of irrigation and drainage network

i.        know the method of flood control

j.        know the types of reservoirs, dams and spillways

k.      know the planned and executing projects to controlling Iraqi water resources for irrigation purposes and flood control such as dams and reservoirs, barrages and cross regulators, irrigation and  land reclamation projects and main outfall drain

l.        know the Water Consumer Sectors such as Agriculture sector, Industry sector, hydropower and water supply and municipal .It was concluded that the agriculture sector the biggest consumer of water.

m.    Learn how electricity is generated from hydroelectric stations.

n.      know the international laws and conventions and to regulate the use of regional shared water resources.

o.      know how to negotiate on the apportionment of the waters of the Tigris and the Euphrates.

p.      Understand the main challenge that faces the Arab countries is that more than 70% of the  Arab surface water with its sources in non Arab countries.

q.      Understand the lack of agreement with the non-Arab countries has many adverse effects mainly in the fact that those  the  non-Arab countries in the upstream part of the river have constructed some water control structures that affect the interest of the downstream Arab countries.

r.        Understand the problem of water shortage and techniques to save, conserve and manage our water resources while providing necessary quantities to satisfy economic and social requirements as well as conserve the environment.

s.       Learn how to write and to contribute to class discussion based on the reading
