3.00 Credits
An examination of strategies for success, including organizational and study skills, and career opportunities for computer engineering technology, electrical engineering technology and electromechanical engineering technology students in industry. There will be at least a dozen textbook and research readings followed by written assignments on topics to include the variety of engineering and engineering technology majors, diversity in society and the technical workplace, personal assessments of goals, values, strengths and weaknesses as related to student and technical career success, and employment application techniques such as resume writing, letters of application, interviewing and follow-up communications. Research assignments use library and Internet as resources and all written assignments are generated by computer.

3.00 Credits
The purpose of this course is to assist sophomore engineering science students in choosing and transferring to the college or university of their choice in order to complete a baccalaureate degree in engineering. Transfer admissions visitors are invited to classes and there may be class trips to potential transfer institutions depending on the interest of the students. This is a required course for the Engineering Science associate degree.

3.00 Credits
This Calculus-based course covers DC circuit analysis including voltage, current, resistance, power and energy. Circuit analysis techniques and Kirchhoff's laws are applied to series, parallel and complex circuits. Thevenin, Norton and Superposition theorems are applied to DC circuits. Operational amplifiers are introduced. Inductance and capacitance are introduced and the transient response of RL, RC and RLC circuits to step inputs is studied using differential equations. The laboratory incorporates use of manual and computer-controlled equipment and simulation software to reinforce lecture concepts.
-
3.00 Credits
Statics at the intermediate level. Equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies in two and three dimensions, centroids, and centers of gravity, analysis of structures, friction, area and mass moments of inertia. Calculus and vector mathematics are employed throughout.
-
3.00 Credits
A unified engineering treatment of the elements of systems dynamics. The intent is to use a common methodology regardless of physical descipline. Included are mechanical and electrical systems. Also included are system excitation, methematical and modeling of physical systems and linear system responses. System stability and responses will be studied using classical techniques and Laplace transforms. The laboratory will include electronic simulation of physical systems as well as analog and digital computer models of independent and coupled first and second order systems.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers AC circuit analysis beginning with the study of sinusoidal steady-state solutions for circuits in the time domain. Nodal, loop and mesh methods of AC circuit analyses and the Thevenin, Norton and Superposition theorems are applied to the complex plane. AC power, transformers, mutual induction, three-phase circuits and two-port networks are introduced and used for analysis. Laplace and Fourier Transforms and the Fourier Series are applied to circuit analyses. Complex frequency analysis is introduced to enable discussion of transfer functions, frequency dependent behavior, resonance phenomenon and simple filter circuits. The laboratory incorporates use of manual and computer-controlled equipment and simulation software to reinforce lecture concepts.

3.00 Credits
This calculus-based circuit course follows the generic Systems Dynamics course with in-depth coverage of techniques for the analysis of linear electric circuits. Simplification and formal procedures for resistive circuits containing independent and dependent sources. Time-domain and frequency domain analysis of first and second order circuits containing energy storage elements. AC steady state, power and three phase circuits. Magnetic coupling and transformers. Passive and active filters. Laplace transform, state variable and computer aided analysis and testing. Three lectures and one laboratory per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Dynamics at the intermediate level. Kinematics and kinetics of particles, systems of particles and rigid bodies and mechanical vibrations. Force, mass, acceleration, work power and energy, impulse and mementum. Calculus and vector mathematics are employed throughout.
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of strength and rigidity of mechnical and structural components in tension, shear, torsion, compressions, buckling, fatigue, and bending by calculus, differential equations and finite element methods of calculation involving manual, computer and CAD techniques. Laboratory experience in standard mechanical property tests, strain gage tests and computer simulation. Components analyzed will involve simple beams, shafts, bars, tanks and complex mechanical or structural frames or surfaces.
-
3.00 Credits
A student may contract for one to four credit hours of independent study through an arrangement with an instructor who agrees to direct such a study. The student will submit a plan acceptable to the instructor and to the department chair. The instructor and student will confer regularly regarding the process of the study.
