20 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 110Introduction to Engineering and Design (4 SH)
An introduction to the design process of an engineering project. The focus will be on different design aspects of an engineering project: defining the design problem, developing a project statement, generating and evaluating ideas and specifications, leading and managing the process, and communicating the outcomes. The design emphasis facilitates students' development of creative and innovation skills, utilizes state-of-the-art technologies, and allows them to experience fields of engineering such as mechanical, electrical, computer, environmental, etc.
This course will cover methods for engineering measurements including design of experiments, data analysis including error and uncertainty, introduction to signal analysis, data acquisition and sampling, and general measurement system behavior. Prerequisite: MATH 154 or MATH 185. (Fall 2023)
An introduction to the design of analog circuits, with an emphasis on hands-on implementation in laboratory exercises in addition to mathematical analysis. The course covers essential circuit components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, transistors, and op-amps. A variety of passive and active circuits are studied, including filters, integrators, comparators, and amplifiers. Projects may include building an AM radio, a homemade op-amp, and PID motor control. Prerequisite: MATH 154 or MATH 185. (Fall 2026)
A problem-solving based approach to the study of the theory and applications of engineering statics. Students will gain expertise in the areas of free-body diagrams, vector mechanics, and equilibrium, and will apply the principles of equilibrium to structural analysis and the analyses of internal and frictional forces. Prerequisites: MATH 185, PHYS 252.
Dynamics is the study of accelerated motion of a body through two perspectives, kinematics (geometric aspects of the motion) and kinetics (forces causing the motion). Kinematics and kinetics of particles and rigid bodies will be examined using methods of force and acceleration, work and energy, and impulse and momentum. Prerequisite: ENGR 270. (Fall 2026)
This course focuses on the concepts and practice of ethics in engineering, computer science, and technological contexts, often through the lens of real-world case studies. Topics include professional codes of ethics, broader ethical theories, impact analysis, the environment, privacy, risk, and other current issues. The interplay among faith, career, and engineering will also be explored in detail. Modes of writing will include both personal reflection and technical analysis. (Spring 2024) Core: WI
A survey course on principles and applications of engineering thermodynamics. Topics include First and Second Laws, thermodynamic properties, energy cycles, control volumes, entropy, and efficiency. Applications include refrigeration and heat pumps, nozzles and diffusers, turbines, compressors, pumps, engines, power generation, psychrometrics, and combustion. Prerequisites: MATH 286 Vector Calculus, PHYS 262 University Physics II Lecture, and CHEM 223 General Chemistry I, or permission of instructor. (Fall 2022)
An introduction to the concepts of fluid mechanics, including a laboratory component. Topics include hydrostatics; fluid kinematics; conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy; the Bernoulli equation; potential flows, and similitude. Prerequisites: MATH 310, PHYS 252. (Spring 2024) Course Descriptions - 203
The behavior of materials and solid structures under a variety of load conditions will be studied in this course. Students will learn equilibrium, stress – strain response, and strain – displacement relations and apply them to solids analysis. Topics such as materials stretch, bend, twist, etc., the stress – strain response of different materials, the stress within externally loaded bodies, and beam theory with applications to beam deflections and design will be covered. Prerequisites: ENGR 270,
Choose a minimum of 6 SH from this list: *CE 370 Digital Circuits (4) *ENGR 330-335 Topics in Engineering (with advisor approval) (2-4) *ENGR 340 Engineering Thermodynamics (3) OR *ENGR 350 Fluid Mechanics *ENGR 370 Strength of Materials (4) *ENGR 480 Control Systems (3)
In this design course, students follow the engineering design process with emphasis on thinking through the challenges that arise when moving from problem definition to product delivery, on interdisciplinary collaboration, and on team dynamics negotiation. Teams work closely with clients as they move through conceptual, preliminary, and final designs. The project results in useful products. When the final product is delivered, the teams will also produce a technical report detailing design alternatives, optimization methodology, problems encountered, and solution summary. Prerequisite: ENGR 291.
This course introduces analysis and design of control systems. Differential equations and transfer functions will be used for modeling of dynamical systems. Stability, tracking, regulation, and sensitivity will be discussed for both open-loop and close-loop structures. The proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) control will be introduced. Root locus, frequency response, and state- variable feedback methods will be presented for feedback control design. Prerequisite: ENGR 380. (Spring 2027)
Work experience gives students an opportunity to gain valuable practical experience. Consulting with faculty advisor guides them in integrating theory and practice to maximize learning. Travel and other expenses are the student’s responsibility. Can be taken any term, including summer.
This course provides a platform for senior students to work on extensive, year-long, team projects under the guidance of engineering faculty mentors. Prerequisite: ENGR 390.
