The course is taught in two identical, large-enrollmentsections of ca. 350 students per section. For the face-to-face (F2F) version of the course, whichhas been offered in a consistent format from 2016-2019, each section met twice weekly for 60minutes of lecture and active learning exercises in a large auditorium. In Fall 2020, due to theCOVID-19 pandemic, the course was offered in an entirely online format that will be describedin more detail in a later section.

I was matched with a civil engineering faculty member, Prof. AULE. In the lab, Iwas closely mentored by one of her Master’s level graduate students, ANSP. I felt I belonged.These women became my role models and mentors.
