A new pre-engineering program is starting at
The program consists of a pathway of two classes starting with
Introduction to Engineering Design and then Principles of Engineering.
Introduction to
Engineering Design
A course that teaches problem-solving skills using
a design development process. Models of product solutions are created analyzed
and communicated using solid modeling computer design software.
Principles of
Engineering
A course that helps students understand the field
of engineering/engineering technology. Exploring various technology systems and
manufacturing processes helps students learn how engineers and technicians use
math, science and technology in an engineering problem solving process to
benefit people. The course covers topics
in Kinematics, Statics, Tensile Strength Testing, Theromodynamics, Simple Robotics, and Programming.
