• Abstract:
  Course CEE 411 "Railway Project Design and Construction" is a cornerstone of the railway ; engineering education program developed by the Rail Transportation and Engineering Center ; (RailTEC) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Prior to this project, many ; elements of the course dated to its initial offering in 2008. This project developed new and revised ; course materials to expand coverage of key concepts that influence the design and construction of ; railway projects. A specific focus of the effort was to incorporate rail-specific CAD design software ; (MicroStation and Bentley RailTrack) into the course lectures and assignments for the first time.
