3.00 Credits
This course is a fundamental course in supply chain and logistics. It presents comprehensive discussion covering the planning, organizing, and controlling of such activities as transportation, inventory, maintenance, order processing, purchasing, warehousing, material handling, customer service and product scheduling. It is specifically designed to help students solve actual challenes that they will encounter in today's market place. It also bring together the strategic role of the supply chain, key strategic drivers of supply chain performance, and the underlying tools and techniques for supply chain analysis. Prerequisite: ENGR2080

3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the application of mathematical modeling and optimization to engineering analysis, design, operations and decision making. Several examples illustrate the use of modeling and optimization techniques to a variety of engineering problem. Numerous algorithms are discussed with critical assessment of performance of each algorithm and significance of related output streams. This course reveals that simple heuristics are not sufficient when solving complex optimization problems so students also learn the importance of using techniques that are guaranteed to yield optimal solutions. Prerequisite: MATH2070
-
2.00 Credits
This course covers the design and improvement of single and multistage production systems. It integrates standard production planning and scheduling decisions in production systems with modern systems concepts and engineering methods for implementing time-based competition lean manufacturing, and supply chain management. In addition to providing an analytical basis for understanding various planning models, the course also provides hands-on engineering topics for process/system improvement. Students in this course muct be enrolled in its lab ENGR4015 at the same time. Prerequisite: ENGR3700 Co-requisite: ENGR4015
-
1.00 Credits
This is the laboratory course to accompany the lecture course ENGR4010. It supports the theory and demonstrates applications of the theory through lab and field experiments, case studies and appropriate problems. Team projects, class reports and presentations will cover the analysis and design of manufacturing systems. Co-requisite: ENGR4010
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide an overview of the management and execution of engineering projects. Directing and working within teams of engineers, scientists and technical specialists who are brought together in project structures to plan, design and construct engineered systems takes special skills and talents. In this course the student will be exposed to basics of staffing, planning, scheduling and project control. Prerequisite: 75 Credits
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the selection, analysis, and design of various machine elements and machines. The course introduces concepts of loads, stresses, deflections, material selection, fatigue failure, and mechanical power transmission components including gearing, bearings, shafting, and frictional devices Prerequisites: ENGR2100, ENGR2160, and ENGR2180
-
3.00 Credits
The Energy Research Seminar is the capstone course for the Alternative Energy Minor and should be taken by juniors or seniors (above 60 credits). The course will focus on current issues of importance in the Alternative Energy field. Expert speakers from the campus community and the Pittsburgh region will address topics following a particular course theme selected by the instructor. Students will be expected to review and critically discuss selected articles and will have the opportunity to serve as discussion leaders at least once during the semester. Each student will prepare a research paper on a specific topic of their own choosing and which is aligned with the Alternative Energy theme of the course. Prerequisites: ENVS1022 or ENGR1022 and ENVS1023 or ENGR1023 Co-requisites: Two electives in student's discipline of study
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the concept of computer-aided engineering. In this course students learn how to use computing tools for engineering analysis and design. A major emphasis of the course is the development and solution of mathematical models of engineering systems or components. Students see how simplified analysis diagrams (free-body diagrams, block diagrams and control volumes) can be developed for real systems and components, and how these diagrams can be used to develop the mathematical models. Topics include modeling, importing various CAD model formats, assembly and animation of the results of analysis, static modal, nonlinear, contact, impact, failure, thermal, and multi-physics analyses, and computational fluid dynamics for design. The laboratory component involves use of current CAD/CAE software packages. Prerequisite: ENGR4100 or Concurrent
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students in the mechanical-engineering track with a basic knowledge of the theory and applications of several numerical methods. These methods include curve fitting, root-finding, fundamental numerical-linear-algebra algorithms to solve systems of linear equations, numerical quadratures, and numerical integration of select ordinary and partial differential equations. Prerequisites: MATH3400 and MATH3420
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction ot safety engineering and work design as applied to industrial situations. Job safety analysis, reduction of accident rates, protective equipment, safety rules and regulations, environmental hazards, health hazards, ergonomics, micromotion, operational analysis, workstations organization, standard time systems and time allowances are among the topics covered. Credits: 3 lecture Prerequisite: ENGR2080
