4.00 Credits
This course, Sustainable Energy Management and the Built Environment, provides an overview of mechanical and associated control systems within buildings with an emphasis on sub-systems which possess the most visible energy signature in terms of energy usage, energy ineffi ciency, and societal/global impact. Fundamentals of system operation are explored as well as energy management techniques. Using domestic and international case studies which highlight energy management within the built environment, students will explore methods by which engineers have achieved solutions aligned with sustainability. (0304-643, 660) Class 4, Credit 4

4.00 Credits
Consists of the numerical solution of heat transfer problems. One-and twodimensional steady-state as well as transient conduction cases are analyzed. A detailed study of single-phase forced and natural convective heat transfer is presented. Heat transfer during pool boiling, fl ow boiling and condensation is studied. Design aspects of heat transfer equipment are introduced. The students undertake a major design project. (0304-440, 514) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This is an applied course in the selection of components and integration of those components into electro-pneumatic-mechanical devices and systems. Topics involve all aspects of machine design, including drive components and systems, motion generation and control, and electrical control hardware and strategy. (0304-359, 437; 0301-381) Class 4, Credit 4

4.00 Credits
This course, Alternative Fuels and Energy Effi ciency for Transportation, provides an overview of the potential alternative fuels and energy effi ciency technologies for powering current and future vehicles. Alternative fuel production technologies and utilization of fuels such as biodiesel, ethanol, and hydrogen will be covered. The primary technical and environmental issues associated with these alternative fuels will be discussed. Approaches to improving vehicle effi ciency will also be explored. Students will be responsible for a fi nal design or research project. (0304-640) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the operation and design of internal combustion engines. Topics include engine types and cycles, fuels, intake and exhaust processes, emissions and emission control systems, heat transfer and lubrication. (0304-413, 514, co-requisite: 550, registration preference is given to students enrolled in the automotive option) Class 4, Credit 4
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the student to the study of linear control systems, their behavior and their design and use in augmenting engineering system performance. Topics include control system behavior characterization in time and frequency domains, stability, error and design. This is accomplished through classical feedback control methods that employ the use of Laplace transforms, block diagrams, root locus, and Bode diagrams. A companion laboratory will provide students with signifi cant hands-on analysis and design experience. (0304-543) Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course is an applied course in the fundamentals and applications of composite materials. Topics covered include constituents of composite materials, fabrication techniques, micromechanical analysis, macromechanical analysis, and the use of composites in design. Some laboratory work will be done, and a major design project is required. (0304-344, 347, 518) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides an overview of materials used in biomedical applications, both internal and external to the human body. Structure and properties of biomaterials will be covered, in addition to material performance in hostile environments. Some experiments will be performed in class. A variety of applications will be covered, with topics to be selected based partly on student interest. Each student will research the material and past performance of a bioengineering product; the work will be presented to the class during week 10. (0304-344, permission of instructor or department approval required) Class 4, Credit 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the design of medical devices and issues that are unique to these devices. Course content includes some historical background, an overview of existing devices and trends, material selection, interfaces of medical devices with biological tissues, product testing, reliability, and regulations specifi c to the design and validation of medical devices. A substantial part of the course is a project, in which students will be required to work in teams to complete a preliminary design of a novel device, including appropriate analysis and documentation. Analysis methods learned from prior coursework in the students discipline will be applied to this component of the course. The course is open to all engineering majors with at least fourth or fi fth year status. (Registration preference is given to students enrolled in the bioengineering option) Credit 4, Class 4
-
4.00 Credits
Examines the basic principles applicable to all turbomachinery as well as the consideration of the operating and design characteristics of several basic classes of turbomachinery. Includes a major design project. (0304-415) Class 4, Credit 4
