PROJECT:
Objective:
The purpose of this project is to help students learn how to conduct a Library research in areas of Engineering, Architecture and related Technology that they are more interested to it.
Instruction:
Find an article from one the following journals that are closely related to your interest and /or major. Write a short review of the article. Please attach a copy of article to your report.
Resourses:
Visit the Reference Department that is located on the second floor of TCC Library. Librarians are on duty to assist you in using the Library's resources. This would provide you with an opportunity to learn the process and techniques of conducting a Library research.
All the journals are organized alphabetically by title in the periodical section of the TCC library's reference department. In addition, the following resources are in the Assignment Alert binder at the reference department:
“Architectural Record”
"Cadalyst"
"Chemical and Engineering News"
"Civil Engineering"
"ENR-Engineering News"
"Issues in Science and Technology"
"Journal Florida Engineering Society"
"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering"
"Journal of Surveying Engineering"
