&lt;div&gt;Here is where participants create, organize and develop learning resources for environmental engineering.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Water drop animation.gif|thumb|right|300px]]&lt;br /&gt;
Environmental engineering is the application of scientific and engineering principles to improve the natural air, water, and/or land resources, to provide healthier water, air, and land for human habitation and for other organisms, and to unpollute polluted sites.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For your information, the &amp;quot;topic&amp;quot; namespace contains pages that are for management and organization of small academic units at Wikiversity such as departments (see: [[Wikiversity:Topics]]).&lt;br /&gt;

The study of [[w:statics|Statics]] is the fundamental examination of the effects of [[w:force|Forces]] upon objects.  Often referred to as the primary discipline within the field of Engineering Mechanics, statics explores the behavior of stationary bodies.  [[w:Dynamics|Dynamics]] is the subsequent study of forces upon moving bodies.&lt;br /&gt;

The study of [[w:statics|Statics]] is the fundamental examination of the effects of [[w:force|Forces]] upon objects.  Often referred to as the primary discipline within the field of Engineering Mechanics, statics explores the behavior of irrotational bodies.  [[w:Dynamics|Dynamics]] is the subsequent study of forces upon rotating bodies.&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:ALoadedTruss.jpg|right|300px]]&lt;br /&gt;
The study of [[w:statics|Statics]] is the fundamental examination of the effects of [[w:force|Forces]] upon objects.  Often referred to as the primary discipline within the field of Engineering Mechanics, statics explores the behavior of irrotational bodies.  [[w:Dynamics|Dynamics]] is the subsequent study of forces upon rotating bodies.&lt;br /&gt;
