    Engineering and administrative function in the control of environmental factors affecting human health and survival. Focuses on the challenges of managing engineering approaches, such as meeting environmental assessment, environmental impact statements and other legal requirements. Course credit cannot be given to students who have taken MEM 680.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Study of commonly used industrial processes, quality control, manufacturing materials and numerical control. Design and manufacture of simple artifacts. Introduction of various processes available for producing engineering artifacts from raw material. Also covers material selection and the production process for an application, along with the fundamentals of statistical quality control. Students will be required to plan the production process and to design tooling for work-holding and sheet metal work. Concurrent lab enrollment required. Prerequisite: GE 206.
  • 1.00 Credits

    Design of work-holding devices for measurement and manufacturing, metal-cutting, welding and sheet metal working. Reinforces theoretical knowledge obtained in ME 300.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces fundamental topics of kinematics and dynamics of machinery in respect to the synthesis of mechanisms in order to accomplish desired motions of tasks, and also the analysis of mechanisms in order to determine their rigid-body dynamic behavior. These topics are fundamental to the broader subject of machine design. This course introduces the design process as it applies to the solution of real-life, unstructured engineering design problems and improves students’ ability to communicate their understanding of the subject through professional quality technical reports and oral presentations. Prerequisites: MTH 172, GE 205.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Advanced course in strength of material and structural design. Prime goal is cultivating student's capability of modeling complex real-world problems into analytical models and solving them numerically or analytically. Emphasis on indeterminate structural analysis, energy method, buckling problems and computational structural mechanics. Structural design and analysis of the senior design project is conducted during course. Prerequisites: MTH 322, GE 206, GE 207.
  • 3.00 Credits

    First course in fluid mechanics covers fluid properties, fluid statics and flows, viscous effect, dimensional analysis, two-dimensional ideal flow, flow measurement for both liquid and gas and compressible flow of gases. Also covers viscous flow in pipes, as well as statistical analysis of experimental data, static and dynamic characteristics of physical signals and experimental methods. Prerequisites: GE 205, GE 206, MTH 322.
  • 1.00 Credits

    lab experiments are organized and scheduled to support the academic course ME 308. Emphasis is on conducting specific experiments, observation and written reports that discuss the related theory and results. Developing a team approach to the experiments is a part of the learning exercise. Experimentation on fluids (liquid and gas), behavior of fluids, including static and dynamic forces, flow rates, velocities, jets, velocity distributions and tow-tank experiments, automated data acquisition and recording. To be taken concurrently with ME 308.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Continued coverage of fluid mechanics with more advanced mathematical treatment and with emphasis on external incompressible flow and internal compressible flow. Introduces the student to viscous, heterogeneous, incompressible and compressible fluid flows, with emphasis on fundamental phenomena, experimental techniques, measurement systems, research methods and data analysis. Course also acquaints the student with current problems, literature and patents on fluid mechanics of heterogeneous fluids in steady-state and transient flow. Application of design problems to simple flows, boundary layer theory, nozzles and diffusers. Introduces numerical solutions. Prerequisites: ME 308.
  • 3.00 Credits

    The first and second laws of thermodynamics, beyond that introduced in elementary physics and chemistry courses, will be covered. Application of thermodynamics laws to practical engineering problems such as turbines, compressors, nozzles, throttles, heat exchangers and mixing chambers. Emphasis is on the concept and practical problems of power generation, refrigeration, internal combustion engines and heat pumps. Primary emphasis is given to heat engines, including internal and external combustion engines. Open-ended design projects provides an introduction to design in thermal sciences and to foster teamwork. Prerequisites: PHY 172, CHM 141; co-requisite: MTH 322.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Emphasis is placed on the practical applications of the principles of thermodynamics developed in ME 340 and extended to cycle analysis. Primary emphasis is given to steam power plants, refrigerators and heat pumps. The application of psychometric principles, gas mixtures, thermodynamics property relations, chemical and phase equilibrium, the thermodynamics of high speed gas flows and combustion are also covered. Prerequisite: ME 340.
