Landfill course notes have been prepared under the auspices of the National Science Foundation. The notes are for a 45-lecture, full-semester, three-credit university course in engineering. The NSF notes are available at the link below in the 1. NSF LANDFILL course folder.
The PowerPoint notes are accompanied by:
1. Instructor’s Manual, comprehensive
2. Syllabus
3. Student reading material, in PDF format
4. Digital pictures
5. Digital videos
6. Tests
7. Class projects
8. Laboratory exercises
9. Software
10. Homework file, extensive
11. Case histories
12. Evaluation materials.
The notes were prepared by David Elton, elton@eng.auburn.edu (Auburn University) Office: 1 334 844 6285, Fax:1 334 844 6290, Departmental phone: 1 334 844 4320, John Bowders (University of Missouri –
Columbia), and David Shannon (Auburn University), with financial assistance from the National
Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education.
The notes have been used and evaluated in a university class.
We hope these are useful to the profession, and help produce a better generation of engineers
prepared to design/construct landfills.
