ENGR 101 Engineering Orientation |
| An introduction to engineering, its evolution, methods, and ethics. An overview of various engineering disciplines and curriculum requirements, an introduction to a variety of modeling and analysis methods, written and oral communication activities, discussion of professional ethics and social implications of engineering work. The course includes introductory activities on measurement methods, data collection, use of electronic spreadsheets and the Internet, possible group projects and/or oral and written reports. |

ENGR 102 Engineering Orientation 2 |
| Prerequisite/Corequisite: MTH 112 or higher completed with a grade of C- or better within the past two years This course is an introduction to the use of computing language in engineering. Focuses on problem solving skills, algorithm design, debugging, and writing programs using universal design principles. |
| |
ENGR 115 Engineering Graphics |
| Introduction to graphical communication theory, including freehand sketching techniques, geometric construction, multi-view, pictorial, sectional and auxiliary view representation and dimensioning techniques. Practical application of theoretical concepts using solid modeling software to capture design intent and generate engineering drawings. |
| |
ENGR 211 Statics |
| Prerequisite: MTH 252 completed with a grade of "C-" or better within the past two years. Principles of statics and particles and rigid bodies are studied with a vectorial approach. Particular attention will be given to the composition, resolution and equilibrium of coplanar and non-coplanar force systems; two dimensional trusses and frames; centroids and moments of inertia of plane areas; coulombic friction; and the distribution of shear and bending moments in simple beams. |
| |
ENGR 212 Dynamics |
| This is a fundamental dynamics course about analysis of motions of particles and rigid bodies encountered in engineering. Topics include kinematics and kinetics of particles and kinematics of rigid bodies in two- and three-dimensions; Newton's second law of motion; rectilinear and curvilinear motion; linear and angular momentum; principles of work and energy; impulse and momentum. |
| |
ENGR 213 Strength of Materials |
| Prerequisite: ENGR 211 and MTH 252, both completed with a minimum grade of "C-" or better within the past two years. Course presents theory of stress and strain, shear, bending, combined stresses, and temperature-induced stresses in axially loaded members, circular shafts, beams and in statically indeterminate systems. Additional topics include thin-walled pressure vessels, torsional and flexural loading, failure theory and column buckling. |
| |
ENGR 221 Electrical Fundamentals 1 |
| Circuits will be analyzed via Kirchoff's Laws with an emphasis on linear, idealized circuit elements including current and voltage sources, resistors, capacitors, inductors and op amps. Circuit techniques and theorems will be applied to circuits containing passive and active sources. Transient responses of passive and active circuits will be addressed. The course emphasizes a combination of conceptual understanding, mathematical analysis, lab experiments and computer simulations. |
