Description:

This course provides students and practicing professionals with applications for, and review of, engineering, math, and science concepts to prepare for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination administered by most states as a first step toward professional licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE). The course focuses on topics that students have been exposed to previously, and on topics that are generally easier to understand and apply with limited explanation of background material. FE exam topics that are covered significantly in Senior-level ARC courses (e.g., ethics and engineering economics) receive limited coverage. Strategies for studying for and taking the FE and similar examinations are covered, as is the application of engineering judgement in general. Applications are primarily in SI units to match the FE examination. 3 hours of lecture/ laboratory per week for 8 weeks. Prerequisite: Senior standing, AET or an ABET accredited program, or instructor permission. [Course fee $35.00]
