What This Document Is
This document is a previously administered exam, along with a detailed solution set, for CEE 330 – Environmental Engineering – offered at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Specifically, it represents a revised solution set for Exam 2 from the Spring 2014 semester. It’s designed to help students assess their understanding of core concepts and problem-solving techniques covered in the course. The exam itself tests application of principles, requiring calculations and conceptual understanding.
Why This Document Matters
This resource is invaluable for students currently enrolled in or preparing for CEE 330 at UIUC, or similar environmental engineering courses at other institutions. It’s particularly useful for students seeking to refine their exam-taking strategies, identify areas where their understanding needs strengthening, and familiarize themselves with the types of questions and problem formats frequently used in assessments. Reviewing worked solutions (available with full access) can provide insight into effective approaches to complex environmental engineering challenges.
Topics Covered
* Contaminant Transport in Groundwater
