ENGR- Engineering

NS- This engineering course is an introduction to the theory and techniques of electric circuit analysis. Students will learn how to analyze circuits of resistors, capacitors, inductors, and sources by making use of electromagnetic theory and network topology. Students will design circuits using time-domain and frequency-domain analysis, and analyze and design AC and power circuits using phasor techniques and mutual inductance. The emphasis will be on real-world applications. Students will develop hands-on experience by designing and implementing circuits in hardware and analyzing them using circuit test technology. A scientific calculator is required.

NS- Students will analyze forces acting on particles, rigid bodies and structures in equilibrium in this engineering course. Topics will include force and moment resultants, free-body diagrams, reactions and supports, internal forces, structures in equilibrium, centroids and centers of mass, distributed forces, and friction. Emphasis will be placed on real-world applications and technology will be integrated throughout the course. A scientific calculator is required.

NS- Students will analyze the kinematics and dynamics of particles, systems of particles and rigid bodies; 2D and 3D coordinate systems; motion relative to translating and rotating reference frames; work and energy; linear momentum and linear impulse; rotating bodies and angular momentum. Emphasis will be placed on real-world applications and technology will be integrated throughout this engineering course. A scientific calculator is required.

NS- Students will analyze the basic theories of stress and strain and their application to the properties and behavior of engineering materials. They will develop an understanding of the subject through an examination of how specific geometry and loads, intrinsic material properties, and the fundamental constitutive relations governing material behavior can be used to predict how materials react to loads. Students will explore this behavior by modeling it in the context of realistic situations. Further, they will examine modes of material failure and learn strategies useful in predicting and preventing it. Technology will be integrated throughout the course, and a scientific calculator is required.

NS- In this course students will develop computational solutions to problems commonly arising in engineering and the sciences. They will create algorithms, use industry-standard software to analyze and visualize data, solve numerical problems, and simulate processes. Applications to statistics, mechanics, and other areas will be explored. Computer experience is helpful but not necessary.

NS- This course is an introduction to computer-aided engineering design, focusing on the design process, solid modeling and design documentation. Students will learn engineering design methodologies and processes, use industry-standard software to visualize, model and implement realistic objects and assemblies, and produce drawings, schematics and other design documents. They will be introduced to dimensioning and tolerancing industry standards. Computer experience is helpful but not required.

NS- This course introduces students to core engineering fundamentals, principles and techniques in the context of system design. Students will learn data visualization and basic statistical techniques, system modeling, basic science and math for technology, use of technology in engineering problem-solving, engineering economics, and an introduction to materials. Sustainability and whole-system design will be central themes of the course.
