This paper describes the recently revised curriculum for the Environmental Engineering course at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. This is done in relation to course content and scope, design and research projects, the role of experimentation and the deployment of advanced computing in terms of problem simulation and learning assistance. Introduction The Environmental Engineering course at the University of Strathclyde [1] was instituted in 1965 and is one of four undergraduate courses offered by the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Essentially, the course is concerned with the design, manufacture, installation and operation of the engineering systems that control the environments in which people live and work. Since its inception, the course has evolved to reflect society's growing awareness that the quality of life must be balanced by the need for conservation of world resources, especially energy, and the protection of the environment. The principal aim is to prod...

ii Disinfectants such as chlorine are used in drinking water treatment to protect the public health from pathogenic microorganisms. However, disinfectants also react with humic material present in raw water sources and produce by-products, such as trihalomethanes. Total trihalomethanes (TTHMs) include four compounds: chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform. TTHMs are carcinogenic and have been found to cause adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has set the maximum contaminant limit for TTHMs at 80 µg/L. Additional regulations require reliable drinking water disinfection for resistant pathogens and treatment plants must simultaneously control TTHMs and achieve proper disinfection. Research has shown that THM formation depends on several factors. THM concentrations increase with increasing residence time, increased temperature and increased pH. The disinfectant type and concentration is also significant: THM
