ERG 100Introduction to Engineering3
This course is designed to introduce students to foundational concepts, professional practices, and diverse disciplines within engineering. Through lectures, guest speakers, hands-on activities, and team-based design challenges, students develop problem-solving skills, learn technical communication methods, and understand the ethical responsibilities inherent in the profession. Key topics include the engineering design process, different engineering branches, basic technical drawing (AutoCAD), data . analysis using spreadsheets, cost estimation, and professional ethics. Semester Offered: F/S
This course covers a vector approach in studying static systems. Areas of study include the resultant of concentrated and distributed force systems, two and three- dimensional equilibrium, trusses, plane friction, centeroids, and moments of inertia. Students learn how to use integral equations to determine centeroids and moments of inertia for various geometrical shapes and derive and graph equations of shear and moment. Semester Offered: F/IN
This course introduces the laws of thermodynamics through the study of systems and the flow of energy across system boundaries. Students learn the First Law of Thermodynamics (utilizing heat, energy, work, enthalpy) and the Second Law of Thermodynamics (and the property of entropy) and their macroscopic and microscopic implications. The course focuses on the application of thermodynamics to engineering systems. Semester Offered: S/SU 107
This course emphasizes stress and strain and the mechanical properties of materials. Topics include axial load, torsion, bending and deflection of beams, Hooke's Law, Mohr's circle, transfer shear, combined loading, stress, strain transformation, design of beams, and buckling of columns. Students use integral and differential equations to solve problems in design of beams and structures. Semester Offered: S/SU Q U I N SIGAM O N D CO M M U N IT Y CO LLEG E 383
