40 courses with the subject ENGR, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
ENGR 101Engineering for Problem Solving in Society3
The foundation for the Saint Francis University academic experience. Introduction to engineering with emphasis on the engineering design process as a tool for problem-solving; and numerical procedures. Active learning including engineering projects; discussion; a focus on written and oral communication, research, and presentations. A minimum of 5,000 words will be written throughout the semester. Research strategies, and personal, financial, and digital wellness that can be applied throughout college. Fall
AVI 103 (1 credit) Introduction to sUAS sufficient to enable the student to complete the FAA knowledge test concerning unmanned aircraft. Course will include both a theory component and a flight practicum emphasizing the technical applications of sUAS. As Needed.
Through a series of real-world projects students will experience the engineering design process, solving engineering problems, use of drawing and design software tools, functioning within multidisciplinary teams, consideration of professional and ethical responsibility, project management, technical writing and verbal communication, creating reports and presentations. Projects will be chosen to integrate engineering disciplines and concepts; typical examples include launching pumpkins, building arduino-based environmental sensors, or using 3-D printing to create scale-models of buildings. As needed
Seminar series featuring talks by engineering professionals working in industry, consulting, research, or government as well as presentations by upperclassman and SFU faculty. Subject matter is primarily technical but with occasional discussion of time management, study habits, ethics, and professional development. Fall.

Subject matter is primarily technical but with occasional discussion of time management, study habits, ethics, and professional development. Spring.
An introduction to computer programming; basic elements of programming utilizing Python; logic analysis and common algorithms in computer programming, focusing on solving engineering problems. Two lecture hours and two laboratory hours. Includes several designed and real projects.
Prepare hand sketches and engineering drawings using some drafting tools. Visualize 3D objects from 2D drawings, and vice-versa. Use commercial quality CAD software to draw two dimensional figures and drawings including orthographic projections, and working and assembly drawings. Use a commercial quality solid modeler to create solid models, and appropriate working and assembly drawings. Prepare solid models suitable for direct import into commercial quality finite-element, finite-difference, or finite-volume analysis codes. Lecture-recitation and Lab.
Evaluate a need that is defined by a client. Develop a preliminary design. Refine that design in the subsequent semester. Fabricate a prototype or scale model of the design. Interact with a subject matter expert outside of students’ discipline.

Study historical and contemporary models of technical and scientific innovation. Application of these methods to areas of current interest. Develop preliminary designs of these applications. Lecture-recitation.
Study the guiding design concepts for the four major classes of unmanned vehicles (air, ground, sea, and space). These concepts will be applied to the design, fabrication, and testing of a unique unmanned vehicle system.
Study of primary modes of heat transfer including conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer, with applications to engineering problems. 1D/2D/3D conduction, forced/free convection, radiation fundamentals, view factors, thermal network, extended surfaces, heat exchange, boiling, condensation, etc. will be covered. Lecture.
Evaluate a need that is defined by a client. Develop a refined design that was developed in a previous semester. Fabricate a prototype model of the design. Interact with a subject matter expert outside of students’ discipline.

Seminar series featuring talks by engineering professionals working in industry, consulting, research, or government as well as presentations by upperclassman and SFU faculty. Subject matter is primarily technical but with occasional discussion of time management, study habits, ethics, and professional development. Students will assemble an engineering portfolio including a statement of purpose, resume, sample cover letter, and examples of engineering design work completed during their course of study. Students will practice for the FE exam. Spring.
The integration of classroom theory with practical work experience under which students have specific periods of attendance at college and specific periods of employment, either full- or part-time, with or without pay. Credit may vary from three to 15 credits, but no more than four credits may be counted toward major requirements, with additional credits counted as free electives. Available with approval of the department chair and the Provost. Fall, Spring, Summer.

This course, open to all majors, introduces students to strategies in engineering design to incorporate environmental, ethical, and economic principles to final design proposals. Explore life cycle analysis, practical applications of present worth and future cost projections, and the relationship between engineering designs and ethical and sustainability concerns. Satisfies the General Education CORE III requirement. Requisite: Eighth semester of study or permission of the instructor. Spring.
Study the guiding design concepts for the main classes of non-vehicle robots. These concepts will be applied to the design, fabrication, and testing of a unique robotic system. The focus will be on robots with functions that are not necessarily associated with transport.
