3.00 Credits
An introduction to engineering as a discipline and pro- fession. Using case studies, readings, discussions, team- work, design contests, and student portfolios, the pro- cesses of design, creative problem solving, and innova- tion are studied. Emphasis is given to the historical and societal contexts of engineering design and its impact on our society for computer, electrical, materials, and mechanical engineering. Skills necessary for success such as creativity, teamwork, and communication are developed. Introductions to the tools and requirements of the four engineering degree concentrations are pro- vided. Fulfills the second natural science core requirement. Open to majors and non-majors. (Fall/Spring)

3.00 Credits
The pyramids and Gothic cathedrals as well as trans- portation, communication, and sanitation systems are just some examples of our engineered world. Students142 Engineering Science explore what makes engineering unique from the sci- ences-the elements of design and creative problem- solving. Emphasis is given to the historical and social contents of engineering design and its impact on our society. Students also explore the connections engineer- ing has to visual thinking-graphic and industrial design. Fulfills the second natural science core requirement. Open to majors and non-majors. (Fall only)
-
1.00 Credits
The fundamentals of engineering computation are covered using the rich MATLAB environment. MATLAB built-in functions are exercised in the solution of sys- tems of linear equations. Application areas can include curve fitting, interpolation, numerical integration, and differentiation. Engineering and scientific problems are addressed through lectures, demonstrations, and the use of MATLAB in a computer laboratory. (Fall only)
-
1.00 Credits
An introduction to the use of spreadsheets for logging, organizing, graphing, and presenting data. Statistical analysis, curve fitting, and solutions to equations are addressed. Engineering and scientific problems are addressed through lectures, demonstrations, and the use of spreadsheets in a computer laboratory. (Spring only)
-
3.00 Credits
The fundamentals of objects and object-oriented pro- gramming are covered, including standard syntactical structures, database interfaces, inter-process commu- nication, TCP/IP communications, and GUI design considerations.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA251, PH201. Engineering mechanics treatment of rigid bodies at rest or moving at constant velocity. Covers force vectors, equilibrium of a particle, force system resultants, equilibrium of a rigid body, simple structural analysis, internal forces, friction, center of gravity and centroid, and moments of inertia.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: EG301, MA252. Engineering mechanics treatment of accelerated rigid bodies. Covers kinemat- ics and kinetics of a particle and planar kinematics and kinetics of a rigid body. Includes work and energy meth- ods and impulse and momentum considerations.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: EG051, EG351. Corequisite: EG390, EG420. A lecture-laboratory providing an empirical foundation for solid mechanics. Includes testing techniques, experi- ments in elastic and plastic deformation, stress and strain measurements, and basic experimental design.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MA252, PH202 or written permission of the instructor. MA252 may be taken concurrently with written permission of the department chair. Corequisite: EG031, EG120. Basic techniques of lumped-parameter circuit analysis are presented. Signal waveforms, electrical element models, Kirchoff's laws are exercised. Mesh equations, node equations, and techniques based on the proper- ties of circuit linearity are used extensively. The utility of Norton and Thevenin equivalent circuits, propor- tionality, and superposition are presented. The transient and steady-state responses of second-order energy stor- age circuits are explored. The course concludes with sinusoidal steady-state analysis and the role of phasors in circuit analysis.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: EG031, EG331. Basic models for both con- tinuous-time and discrete-time signals and systems are presented. Complex exponential, singularity , and piece- wise functions are discussed. The classification of signals, signal measurements, and signal representations are discussed. System representation, system classification, and input/output calculations are presented. Convo- lution, Fourier series, and Fourier transform are used extensively in both continuous-time and discrete-time. The ideal sampling of continuous-time signals is exam- ined. The roles of both the Laplace transform and the z-transform in linear systems analysis are introduced.
