Hsin-Neng Hsieh
Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering
Teaching
Dr. Hsieh has taught the following courses at NJIT.
Mech 235 - Statics ( 3-0-3)
Prerequisites: Phys 111, Math 112.Provides an understanding of
equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies subject to concentrated and
distributed forces.
Mech 236 - Dynamics (2-0-2)
Prerequisites: Mech 235 (or Mech 234 for IE, ME majors). Provides an
understanding of the mathematics of the motion of particles and rigid
bodies, and of the relation of forces and motion of particles.
CE 320 - Fluid Mechanics (4-0-4)
Prerequisites: Mech 235. Co-requisite: Mech 236. This course is designed
to present the fundamental laws relating to the static and dynamic
behavior of fluids. The emphasis is placed on applications dealing with
the flow of water and other incompressible fluids. These include flow in
pipe systems and natural channels.
CE 461 - Professional Practice
in CEE (3-0-3)
Develop an understanding of the process to become a licensed
professional engineer and familiarize the students with the professional
practice of engineering including codes of ethics and professional
business practices and to provide an adequate background for the
Fundamentals of Engineering. Dr. Hsieh is responsible for
Mathematics and Chemistry Review.
EnE 660 - Introduction to Solid
and Hazardous Waste Problems (3 credits)
Prerequisite: EnE 663. (May be taken concurrently.) Introduction to
solid waste disposal. Industrial and urban sources of solid waste and
conventional methods of waste disposal. Application of engineering
principles related to these topics.
EnE 662 - Site Remediation (3
credits)
Prerequisite: EM 631. (Can be taken concurrently). Examines
site remediation from start to finish. Includes regulations, cleanup
standards, remedial investigations, feasibility studies, risk
assessment, and safety. Examines established and innovative cleanup
technologies such as incineration, containment, bioremediation, vapor
extraction and ground water recovery.
EnE 665 - Biological Treatment
(3 credits)
Prerequisites: EnE 663, EnE 661. (May be taken concurrently.) Principles
of evaluation and control of water pollution that describe aerobic
treatment processes: oxidation ponds, trickling filters, and activated
sludge. Anaerobic digestion and sludge handling and disposal as well as
biodegradability study techniques for various wastes.
EnE 669 - Water and Wastewater
Analysis (3 credits)
Prerequisite: EnE 663. (May be taken concurrently.) Measurement of
parameters of interest in water and wastewater quality studies is
performed in the laboratory. Specific project requiring analysis,
interpretation, and recommendations will be a major part of the work.
EnE 670 - Advanced Processes in Water Pollution
Control (3 credits)
Prerequisite: EnE 669. Detailed laboratory experiments using unit
operations of sedimentation, coagulation and flocculation; chlorination,
filtration, aeration, sludge treatment and digestion. Aspects of pilot
plant design and layout are considered. Design parameters discussed in
prerequisite courses are developed by advanced bench-scale laboratory
procedures. Advanced design and synthesis are considered.
EnE 672 - Stormwater Management (3 credits)
Prerequisites: CE 320 & CE 321. Provides a comprehensive
study of stormwater management with emphasis on design practices. Topics
include regulatory framework, an overview of structural and
non-structural BMPs, groundwater recharge analysis, estimate of runoff,
and design of detention basin and drainage systems.
