-
2.00 Credits
Students learn emerging topics and vocabularies in the discipline and problem-solving skills through capstone projects. This course teaches students how to continuously explore new ideas through their post-graduation life. Pre-requisite: 90 credit hours or more.
-
3.00 Credits
Students learn project management skills and intensive writing skills, and use the skills to professionally present the project results of Senior Project 1. Pre-requisite: 90 credit hours or more.
-
2.00 Credits
Engineering and its related technologies offer exciting and challenging careers for youngsters. While science and mathematics are essential foundations for engineering and technology, they can be intimidating as a first introduction to these fields. This course presents an alternative approach that introduces freshmen students to engineering through carefully chosen experiments that appeal to the students' direct, intuitive experience of the world around them. In addition, students in this course will learn how to analyze, interpret, and present the collected data using MATLAB and MS-Excel. Lec. 6 hrs. Pre-requisite: Engineering Freshman Status.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduces the fundamentals of engineering experimentation. Modern equipment and instrumentation used in engineering laboratories are presented with emphasis on measurements. State-of-the-art instruments for measurement of angle, distance, pressure, and temperature are used to illustrate the importance of understanding errors and their influence on measurements. The use of electronics in measuring instruments (both analog and digital) is demonstrated through the use of civil and mechanical engineering applications. Lec. 3 hrs.
-
3.00 Credits
Presents problem-oriented course using commercial generic software (word processing, spreadsheet, database, presentation, and selected applications). The students are provided a fundamental introduction to the software and then use in the solution of engineering problems. Lec. 3 hrs.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers statics of particles and rigid bodies; equilibrium, distributed forces; centroids; center of gravity; structure-trusses, frames, machines; forces in beams and cable; friction; moments of inertia. Lec. 3 hrs. Pre-requisite: PHYS 201.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers kinematics and kinetics of a particle. Planar kinematics of a rigid body; planar kinetics of a rigid body including force and acceleration; work and acceleration; work and energy; impulse and momentum, and vibrations. Lec. 3 hrs. Pre-requisite: CVEN 201.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers axial forces, shear and moment, stress and axial loads, strain and axial deformation, torsion of shaft, stress in beams, columns, deflection of beams, energy methods, and elemental indeterminate problems. Lec. 3 hrs. Pre-requisite: CVEN 201 Co-requisite: CVEN 208.
-
1.00 Credits
Covers introduction-purpose, scope, equipment/ apparatus, interpreting the text results, errors, writing reports. Experiments include physical properties of concrete, mechanical response of steel, shearing force, bending moment, member forces in truss, deflection, hinged arches, portal frames, suspended center span bridge. Lab 2 hrs. Co-requisite: CVEN 206.
-
2.00 Credits
Introduces the student to the basic principles of measurement at or near the surface of the earth. The fundamental concepts of observing and establishing the linear and angular measurements necessary to determine the horizontal and vertical position of points required for engineering works are presented. The theory of errors associated with large scale measurements and the ?management? of them through survey procedures and analysis are presented. The student will develop an understanding of the ?tools? (procedures and software) necessary to process field data and produce horizontal and vertical control information (e.g. adjusted traverses, bench mark elevations, contour maps, etc.). Lec. 3 hrs. Pre-requisite: CVEN 202.
