Civil Engineering: Harmony between Nature and Civilization
Description
Book Introduction
For students who are considering choosing a major in high school or college,
A new concept in civil engineering for the general public interested in civil engineering.
This book, produced as part of the Korean Society of Civil Engineers' publication project, was designed to provide knowledge related to civil engineering to new students who have entered the Department of Civil Engineering but have not yet taken major courses and are therefore unsure of what they will study in the future or what career paths they can choose after graduation. However, it has also been created so that anyone interested in civil engineering can easily understand it.
The first edition was written over two years with the efforts of 21 writing committee members and 13 planning committee members. It explains the past, present, and future of civil engineering in 12 topics in an easy-to-understand manner with many photos and illustrations, allowing readers to feel familiar with civil engineering. It is also fun to read as it includes stories of civil engineering encountered in everyday life and examples of interesting phenomena or stories that we often overlook.
The first edition published in this way was recognized for its excellence in content immediately after publication and was selected as an outstanding academic book by the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Korea in 2016.
This revised edition, which came out three years after the first edition in 2015, actively reflected the results of an online survey of approximately 340 people about the first edition. New content on construction management majors that had been omitted from the first edition was added, and some content was supplemented or deleted to cover 13 topics. In addition, assignments are included at the end of each chapter so that students can assign them as homework when using the textbook.
In particular, this revised edition will be provided with a lecture PPT that will be helpful to professors who teach introduction to civil engineering at each university and use 'Civil Engineering in Harmony with Nature and Civilization' as a textbook.
