Computer facilities include the College of Engineering Eos network of more than 500 public workstations and numerous microcomputers, over 50 of which are located in Mann Hall. The Eos system provides access to a wide range of engineering software, as well as to other campus-wide and off-campus computers. The Department's laboratories contain a variety of special equipment for research in structures, mechanics, soils, construction materials, construction engineering, hydraulics, and coastal and environmental engineering. The special facilities are described below.
In addition to the Department's facilities, resources of the College of Engineering include an electron microscope, x-ray analysis facilities, mass spectrometer, precision machine shop, and instrument shop. The University's D.H. Hill Library has strong research collections in all fields of engineering and is a depository for U.S. federal documents. The collections include more than 1,200,000 books and bound journals, 2,500,000 microforms, and 600,000 government publications. Approximately 8,500 journals are received regularly. As a further aid to research, an interlibrary loan program provides daily access to research holdings of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University, and other libraries in the Research Triangle. |
