  • 3.00 Credits

    Two hours lecture, two hours lab. An introduction to the design and implementation of contemporary manufacturing systems. Single and multiple station, manual, mixed mode, automated, and flexible manufacturing systems are covered. Numerical analysis of these systems to determine production rates, product cost, defect rates, and efficiency will be performed. In the laboratory students will learn to program and operate various types of production hardware including robots and CNC machines. Prereqs: Junior standing in engineering or consent of instructor.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Two hours lecture, three hours lab. An introduction to vibration theory, including the modeling and analysis of oscillatory phenomena found in linear discrete and continuous mechanical systems. This course will introduce noise and vibration control as an application of vibrations theory. A hands-on laboratory will greatly enhance the learning experience and bridge the gap between theory and practice. Prereqs: ENGR 275 and MATH 433.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture. The design and analysis of mechanical systems considering theories of static failure, fatigue, impact loading, and fracture mechanics; with a special emphasis placed on material selection. Prereq: ENGR 355.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture. Introduction to unified approach to lumped-element modeling and analysis of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and mechatronic systems. Topics include graphical modeling using band graphs; formulation of stalespace equations; analysis of linear systems; determination of time and frequency domain response of such systems to transient and periodic inputs, block diagram representation of dynamic system using LaPlace Transforms; and integration into feedback control systems. Prereqs: ENGR 255, ENGR 275, and MATH 433.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture. An introductory course in optics covering wave propagation, interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter, geometrical optics, polarization, interference and diffraction. Supplementary topics from modern optics such as lasers, detectors, fiber optics, optical communications, imaging, and storage also included. Prereq: PHYS 206, MATH 433, or consent of instructor.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Two hours lecture, Three hours lab. Fundamentals of fluid mechanics including application of Bernoulli’s equation for incompressible flow, hydrostatic forces on gates, dynamics of fluid flow, friction loss and drag, sizing of pipes and pumps, and turbo machinery. The laboratory portion requires students to design experiments to evaluate specific fluid principles and concepts with subsequent completion to reinforce the understanding of the material. Prereqs: ENGR 235 and MATH 330.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Two hours lecture, three hours lab. This course covers the analysis and design of modern industrial control systems. Continuous control concepts such as loop stability and error minimization are examined through the study of proportional, integral, derivative, and advanced control algorithms and process loop tuning methods. Discrete control concepts are explored through the application of programmable logic controller situations. PC-based data acquisition and instrumentation systems also are developed. Prereq: Junior standing in engineering or a related discipline.
  • 3.00 Credits

    An independent study course requiring the student to complete an assigned design project under the guidance of a faculty member. The project will require application of various analytical methods and the use of computer models or laboratory facilities. A written report is required upon completion of the design project. Repeatable for credit up to two times. Prereq: Junior standing in engineering and consent of faculty advisor.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture, three hours lab. Design of reinforced concrete structures for bending, shear and diagonal tension, axial load and bending, development lengths and splices, including retaining walls and reinforced concrete foundations. Prereq: ENGR 325.
  • 4.00 Credits

    3 hours lecture, Three hours lab. Design of steel structures for tension members, beams and columns, bolted and welded connections, including plate girders using the latest LRFD specifications. Prereq: ENGR 325.
