Basic graphics techniques and representations (orthographic, isometric, perspective) with traditional drawing and with computer-aided graphics for engineering applications. Use of drafting technology in engineering design and plans preparation. Course designed to build basic competency in interpreting and constructing technical drawings in AutoCAD for use in future design classes, including the senior design course. No previous computer experience required.

3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to basic graphic techniques (orthographic, isometric, perspective) with traditional drawing and with CAD graphics for mechanical engineering applications. The course is designed to ensure that students have the required skills to create and interpret drawings in 3-D and solid models using SolidWorks or current software available in the field. It will also introduce the students to analysis techniques for geometry and meshing. In addition, students will be introduced to graphing calculators.
-
1.00 Credits
Introduction to engineering problem-solving and the design process. Student teams create practical solutions to simple engineering design projects selected by faculty coordinators. Emphasis is on stimulating interest and creativity within the framework of an open-ended, repetitive, systematic process for generating alternatives, comparing potential solutions to project criteria and selecting the optimum solution to achieve objectives. Discussions and guest lectures on professionalism, ethics, economics, legal issues, safety and reliability are included. Course is required for all freshman engineering students. Transfer students register for GE 305.

3.00 Credits
Course represents the transition from theoretical studies of forces and equilibrium, as studied in physics, to applied science. The equilibrium of a particle when acted upon by a system of forces and the equilibrium of bodies in two and three dimensions are studied. Also covers equilibrium considerations for the design of trusses and machines, effects of friction on equilibrium and calculations of centroids and center of gravity. Prerequisites: MTH 171, PHY 171.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers kinematics; motions of particles and rigid bodies and kinetics; force, mass and acceleration; work and energy; and impulse and momentum. Newton's second law is applied to the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies. Topics covered include development and application of the conservation of energy; impulse and momentum; and the conservation of momentum forms of the second law. Students learn to solve problems requiring the application of combinations of dynamics principles and to relate "real world" conditions to theoretical dynamic models and their results. Prerequisites: MTH 171, PHY 171.

3.00 Credits
A study of the fundamentals of mechanics that deal with the relationships between applied loads, internal stresses and deformations in deformable bodies. Topics include the relationships between stress and strain; stress analysis for axial force, flexure, torsion, shear and combined loads; column stability; ultimate strength and safety factor; and deflections in beams and shafts. Course represents the transition from statics to upper-division courses in geotechnical engineering, fluid mechanics, machine design, advanced stress analysis and structural analysis and design. Prerequisite: GE 204.
