-
5.00 Credits
(Formerly ENGR-100) Introduction to the engineering profession and its design process by building group skills, understanding the effects of different learning styles, producing strategies for innovation, and fostering creativity in problem solving. Includes design projects, journal keeping, professionalism and ethical issues, and oral presentations. Acquaints students with disciplines and opportunities in engineering. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL-095 and READ-095 with a grade of "C" or higher; completion of MATH-090 with a "C-" or higher; or equivalent assessment in these areas.
-
5.00 Credits
(Formerly ENGR-123) An introduction to Computer Aided Design (CAD) using software based on parametric solid modeling. Students will use the software to create virtual models, show the models in various projections and views, manage the associated computer files, and produce engineering drawings. The course includes the engineering graphics topics of three-dimensional visualization, sketching, displaying solid objects in two-dimensional views, dimensioning, and reading engineering drawings. Prerequisite(s): MATH-090, READ-095, and ENGL-095.
-
4.00 Credits
Elementary principles underlying the structure and properties of materials used in the practice of engineering. The properties of inorganic and organic materials as related to atomic, molecular and crystalline structure. Mechanical stress, electromagnetic fields, irradiation, and thermal and chemical changes are considered with respect to their influence upon mechanical, electrical and chemical properties. Prerequisite(s): CHEM&-162 (May be taken concurrently), and MATH&-141
-
5.00 Credits
(Formerly ENGR-215) An introduction to electrical engineering through basic circuit and system concepts. Topics include: resistors, sources, capacitors, inductors, operational amplifiers, node and mesh analysis, Thevenin and Norton equivalents and RLC circuits. Solution of first and second order linear differential equations associated with basic circuit forms will be used. Students will use basic breadboard kits to investigate some of the principles learned in class. Prerequisite(s): MATH-238 (may be taken concurrently), and PHYS-122.
-
5.00 Credits
(Formerly ENGR-210) Scalar and vector analysis of two and three dimensional static structures. Topics include: vector notation, equilibrium, moments, couples, distributed loads, resultants, trusses, frames and machines, center of mass, inertia, shear and bending moment diagrams, and friction. Includes a design project. Prerequisite(s): PHYS-121 (may be taken concurrently), and MATH&-152.
-
