-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
An advanced seminar offered on an occasional basis addressing a current topic in the field that is of special interest to students and current faculty.
-
4.00 Credits
A two-part course beginning with rigid bodies in equilibrium. A quantitative description of forces, moments, and couples acting upon engineering structures at rest is developed. The free-body diagram is used extensively to understand the equilibrium of a whole physical system through isolation of each component particle, or body. The second part of the course considers the mathematical description of rigid bodies in motion under the action of forces, moments, and couples. Students learn how to describe the geometry of motion (kinematics) and then move into two- and three-dimensional kinetic analysis. Additional course fee is required. Prerequisites: ENGR 152 Engineering Principles II, MATH 202 Calculus II and PHYS 211 General Physics with Calculus I.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Supervised experience in the discipline including internships and practica required for professional programs. This introductory experience must have an on-site supervisor and/or a departmental instructor overseeing, designing, and evaluating the content of the course. Prerequisite: instructor's permission.
-
2.00 - 4.00 Credits
Occasional special courses chosen to fit the interests and needs of engineering students and faculty. Additional course fee is required.
-
2.00 Credits
Solution to problems in mechanical engineering using numerical techniques. Development of numerical models beginning with physical model analysis, description of appropriate governing equations, selection of critical parameters, choice of solution methodology, and application of numerical solution procedure. Applications selected from a wide variety of topics in mechanical engineering. Solution techniques to include finite difference and finite element methods. Additional course fee is required.
