    Fall Semester This course introduces the C/C++ programming language and teaches the students basic skills in developing algorithms, writing pseudo-code of algorithms, and writing structured programs. Students learn to translate models of physical problems into mathematical algorithms and, subsequently, into C/C++ code. Algorithm development is focused on but not limited to engineering related problems. Students are also exposed to the use of a microcontroller through simple applications and/or a project. 2 credit hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Spring Semester This course is a basic engineering course in applied mathematics at the undergraduate level. Four interconnected topical areas are covered: matrices and systems of linear equations, functions of several variables including vector calculus, partial differential equations (PDEs) related to boundary value problems, and numerical methods for solving PDEs. Applications include problems related to traffic flow, fluid mechanics, heat conduction, elasticity, electromagnetic theory, acoustics, and environmental pollution. Prerequisite: MAT272. 4 credit hours.
  • 1.00 Credits

    Spring Semester This one-credit-hour seminar prepares students for their first co-op work assignment. Activities may include industrial field trips to meet with York College co-op students who give tours and presentations of their engineering experiences. Senior engineering students who have finished their three co-op terms may be invited to present and discuss their experiences in a formal panel discussion. Guest speakers from industry, including an engineering co-op mentor and human resource manager, may be invited to discuss topics related to the real world of engineering work. Exercises may include role playing and situational ethics. Grading is Pass/Fail only. 1 credit hour.

    Summer Semester This course involves the use of statistical methods for improving the design of products and processes, for determining the capability of processes to meet product design requirements, and for controlling processes to assure product quality. Topics include: random variation, induction and deduction; probability and statistics related to sampling distributions; hypothesis testing; one-, two-, and three-way analysis of variance; full and fractional factorial design of experiments; Taguchi designs; response surfaces; evolutionary operations (EVOP); statistical process control; and process capability analysis. Lectures are supplemented with statistical experiments and team activities that are related to statistical design. 3 credit hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Summer Semester Modeling and analysis of basic mechanical and electrical systems including static and dynamic equilibrium force analyses, vibration, elasticity, fluid mechanics and heat transfer and simple electric circuits will be discussed in this course. Analogies between these systems will be explored. Other topics include: methods of linear approximation, lumped, integral and differential models, free and forced responses of first and second-order systems, steady-state frequency response, filtering, resonance and Bode plots, damping, dynamic stability analysis including Routh's method and Evan's root locus method, and coupled modes of natural motion for two and may degree-of-freedom systems. Prerequisite: ECE330. 3 credit hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Spring Semester Engineering seniors, operating in design teams, apply principles of the design process to create a product or process to meet the needs of a customer. Projects may originate in industry, as a contest sponsored by a professional society, or in other venues. The design team, with the guidance of a faculty advisor, must plan, direct, conduct, and effectively communicate the results of the design effort through a professional engineering report and oral presentation. The design project will include material within and beyond the curriculum as well as technical and non-technical considerations. Design projects often result in a deliverable prototype. Prerequisites: EGR305, ME340, ME360, ME380. 3 credit hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Summer Semester This course is a continuation of EGR400. 3 credit hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Summer Semester This course examines current social issues, professional practices, and ethical considerations relevant to engineers. Case studies are used to illustrate the potential impact of proper and improper professional practices as well as the difficulties involved in weighing ethical considerations and making ethical decisions. Local, regional, and global issues involving engineering and technology are also discussed, in particular with respect to the impact of engineering and technology on social and economic policy. 3 credit hours.

    All Semesters Co-op is a graduation requirement for all engineering students. The student spends a total of three semester terms plus interim periods (48 weeks or more) employed in an industrial organization or enterprise performing engineering-related work. Beginning with the summer term after the student's sophomore year, he or she alternates work semesters with academic semesters until the spring semester of the senior year. Co-op employment is coordinated and monitored by the participating faculty member and the industrial mentor. Co-op reports are approved and signed by all three parties. Prerequisite: EGR290. 2 credit hours.
