College of Planetary Engineering                    Our motto:

“We think inside the box, but the box is rather large..”

Catastrophic Flooding Curriculum

Our Catastrophic Flooding Department assumes that over the next few centuries, there will likely be catastrophic rises in sea levels reaching 60, 120, or possibly 260 feet. These rises, if they occur, can be expected at varying rates year to year, decades to decade, and century to century. We are committed to finding real-world solutions to the problems this flooding will present to people worldwide.

Our first-year courses are designed to give you a solid scientific foundation on which to build your engineering career. But starting even in the basic courses, you will begin to learn about the scientific, business and political considerations needed to design and implement engineering solutions mitigating population displacement by permanent flooding of large metropolitan, suburban and agricultural areas.

As a second-year student, you will learn to develop engineering projects in cooperation with political science, psychology, business, finance, art, and criminal justice students here or at other local colleges and universities. In the second semester, you’ll have opportunities in technical and managerial specialization study areas, including evacuation infrastructure, temporary and permanent housing, temporary and permanent transportation infrastructure, environmental mitigation, and sanitation.

In your third year, you’ll expand your horizons by working formally on engineering projects with students at other colleges and universities, locally, nationwide, and internationally. You’ll have opportunities for business and government internships related to your area of study and further develop relationships with previous graduates of our college.

Fourth-year students will explore the involvement of local, national, and international leaders, legislators, executives in government and industry, other interested parties, and the general public in their project activities.
