  • EN 530.222: To Boldly Go . . . An Exploration of Aerospace Engineering

    1.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    This course provides an overview of aerospace engineering from a design perspective. Emphasizing a strong historical viewpoint from the Wright brothers to SpaceShipOne, fundamental concepts in aerodynamics, propulsion, and performance will be introduced. Students will examine various Hollywood notions of air and space technology, and discuss the associated realistic engineering challenges. Time and interest permitting, additional focused topics such as space optics, micrometeoroid shielding, and industry guest speakers will be included.

  • EN 530.319: Molecular Modeling and Simulation for Engineers

    3.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    Nano-sized engineering materials and devices behave in ways that are profoundly different from their traditional macroscopic counterparts. This course will provide students with an introduction to this exciting and rapidly evolving field. Through a combination of lectures, case-studies, and hands-on applications, students will (i) develop an understanding of the principles that govern the performance of nanoscale engineering systems, and (ii) learn how molecular modeling tools can assist in the design and analysis of such systems. * Prerequisites: Calculus II, General Physics II

  • EN 530.389: Appropriate Technology

    2.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    In an era of concern over reliance on fossil fuels to power society and the economy, the course is intended to give students physical intuition for how much energy is needed to perform tasks of daily life, while emphasizing fundamental engineering concepts. Students will use analytical and design skills to evaluate sustainable technologies such as sterling engines, ram pumps, wind mills, solar heaters, and various machines powered by humans and/or biofuels. Students will design and build “low tech” machines, for which they will also design and conduct experiments to measure the machine’s energy consumption, performance and efficiency. Life cycle costs and environmental and societal impact will also be evaluated and compared with competing “high tech” alternatives. Students should have a working knowledge of solid mechanics, heat transfer, fluids, materials selection, statistical analysis, chemistry, matlab, and engineering economics. Practical skills, such as construction, welding, ma

  • EN 530.404: Engineering Design Project II

    4.00 Credits
    Johns Hopkins University

    Prereq: 540.403 The Senior Design Project, a unique two-semester course, is the capstone of Johns Hopkins’s Mechanical Engineering Program. In the class, students working in small teams tackle specific design challenges presented by industry, government, and nonprofit organizations. The sponsors provide each team with a budget, access to world-class resources, and technical contacts. Ultimately, each team conceptualizes a novel solution to the sponsor’s problem and then designs, constructs, and tests a real-world prototype before presenting the finished product and specifications to the sponsor. The course requires students to draw upon the four years of knowledge and experience they’ve gained in their engineering studies and put it to practical use. Throughout the year, they produce progress reports as they design, build, and test the device they are developing. Combining engineering theory, budget and time management, and interactions with real clients, the senior design project is critical to students’ preparation for the transition from school to the workplace.
