Fall Construction II (fluid dynamics) or EN-4111 (fluid mechanics) and EN-7257In addition to these core courses (9 credits), students are required to take another 9 credits tofulfill the minor degree requirements. In order to provide more flexibility in educationalplanning, students can choose plan A, i.e. take three 3-credit elective courses (total of 9 credits ofelective courses) OR plan B, i.e. take one 6-credit co-op plus one 3-credit elective course.

stage of the project. This raster data was used with NOAA and NASA data tocalculate future land subsidence and sea-levels in the second stage. The result of the secondstage produced a topobathymetric digital elevation model (TBDEM) that was influenced bythe combined effect of land subsidence and sea level rise. In stage three as shown in Figure 1,more steps were taken to extract, convert and classify GIS data to make it ready to be usedfor the identification of infrastructure located in inundated coastal region in fourth and finalstage of the project.Figure 2. The specific steps taken in at the first three stages of the project A) interpolation ofNGS data; B) calculation of subsidence and sea level rise; C) extraction and conversion.Figure 3

mediumin which information presented matches his or her learning style (Barbe & Milone, 1980&1981). It has been a well–established fact that learning is an interactive process that takesplace in educational environment established specifically to promote to enhanceknowledge in a learning atmosphere (Keefe, 1987). Researchers have actuallydemonstrated that if one utilizes technology systematically, it may actually help theinstructor address perceptual dimensions of learning. Dr. Walter B. Barbe, a nationally known authority in the fields of reading andlearning disabilities has shown that perceptual modality styles provides an indication ofan individual’s dominant learning mode (Barbe & Milone, 1980 & 1981).

Much of this infrastructure was scoured, damaged or even collapsed.Figure 10 presents a series of photos of damages at the West coast of Puerto Rico.
