The course provides an introduction to the engineering profession. Students are provided with an orientation to the program as well as the engineering specializations offered by the department. Areas of study include academic success strategies, time management, and the development of skills needed for successful group work. (graded P/U)
-
0.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Senior standing A review of engineering principles in preparation for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) certification examination. (graded P/U)
-
0.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Senior standing Orientation course to aid students making the transition from college to graduate school/industry. Topics include career planning, resume preparation, interviewing techniques, professional responsibilities, ethics, graduate, and continuing education. (graded P/U)
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces the student to the concepts of mechanical design through the use of solid modeling of machine and product elements, exercises in reverse engineering, and the design of a simple machine. The course endeavors to provide the student the experience of learning a concept by analysis (reverse engineering), giving form to this concept through 3-D modeling, and finally applying the concept(s) in a simple mechanical design.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: None Includes a brief review of algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and Calculus A. The course will introduce the use of computational methods as a tool for engineering analysis appropriate for K-12 environment. Computational methods will include and MS Excel. Mathematical concepts to be covered include: numerical integration, multiple integrals, vector algebra, and differential equations. All mathematical topics will be tied to the solution of physical problems. The course will also cover the analysis of experimental data and include the concepts of error analysis and standard deviation. This course meets endorsement requirements for Middle School Math
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: None (department majors get highest priority) This course is intended to build upon knowledge and skills learned in TST 161/Creative Design. The main emphasis will be placed on understanding 2-D visual elements, compositional operations, and associated human factors principles. Students will be given design problems in page layout, photography, video production, and web-based media. They will also investigate the ethical standards of the profession through case studies, and study the various means of communication through visual images through history.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: TST 161 Co-requisite: MAT 127 or ETE 131This course is a synthesis of the primary concepts that are covered in the traditional mechanical engineering courses of Statics, Strength of Materials and Machine Design. The lecture portion of the class contains ample real-world examples to illustrate the applicability of the STEM concepts being discussed. The course containssubstantial hands-on activities in which students are instructed in the safe and effective use of materials and tools, including woodworking machines.
-
4.00 Credits
Co-requisite: ETE 271 This course builds upon the laboratory experience students gained in ETE 271 and the material covered in ETE 131/Engineering Math. Students get further instruction in the use of woodworking tools and learn the theory of cutting tools. The course moves on to machining techniques (lathe and mill) and includes projects that investigate optimal cutting speeds and feed speeds for various engineering materials. Additional projects cover tensile testing, the use of strain gages, sheet metal fabrication, plastics, composite materials and environmental effects.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Sophomore or above status This introductory course provides the student with an overview of the fundamental concepts of the science of electricity, electrical circuits and how electrical technologies have substantially influenced society. The course is lecture-based but requires the student to build and test a wide range of electrical circuits. The course will cover the use of the digital multimeter, variable power supply, function generator, and oscilloscope. Topics covered include conductors/insulators, Ohm's law, resistor networks, measurement (the use of digital multimeters), Kirchhoff's Laws, RC circuits, semiconductors (LEDs and diodes), transformers and rectifiers, transistors and 555 timers, DC motors.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: MAT 127 or ETE 131, ETE 271 or permission of instructor This course introduces students to the world of environmental and biotechnology systems, at the intersection of the designed and natural worlds. Course content includes a number of critical broad concepts in contemporary technological studies including agricultural and genetic biotechnology, energy systems, sustainable design, analytical medical technologies, waste remediation and ethical issues. Lecture topics are supported by pertinent laboratory and field experiences.
