APS343H1 F/S

Engineering Leadership

Complementary Studies elective

This course is a practical approach to being a more productive engineer based on the
premise that for technology to become a reality it must be translated through people. A key
is to understand that engineers lead in ways that reflect their skills and mind set. The
course begins with examining: 1) the meaning of leading (Why do something?); 2) the
processes of leading (How do you do you create a vision and motivate others?); and 3) the
tools of leading (What steps do you take to lead?). Learning frameworks and personal
working styles inventories provide practical tools to assist the student to understand human
nature and the logic of learning to become a competent leader of self, teams and
organizations. The student prepares to become a competent leader by undertaking to learn
(understand and integrate) key skills, character attributes and purposeful behaviors. The
course presents strategies for development of high performance teams. Special attention is
given to a number of subjects: transformational change, organizational culture, high
performance work systems, and self-leadership. The course material is delivered through
lectures, readings, in-class discussion and a team project. The project is based on the team
interviewing the CEO of an engineering-intensive company or senior leader in the
community. Students will be required to submit written reflections on course content and
their personal experience.

CIV420H1 F

Construction Engineering

This course considers the engineering aspects of construction including earthmoving,

equipment productivity, fleet balancing, formwork design, shoring, hoisting, aggregate

to visit construction sites, so safety boots and hard hats are required.

CIV541H1 F

Environmental Biotechnology
