Engineering (EE)
 
 
EG:101   Basics of Engineering Drawing   3 cr.
An introductory course in engineering drawing dealing with geometric constructions, lettering, freehand sketching, sectional views, auxiliary views, orthographic projections, basic dimensioning and working drawings. Satisfies requirements for Industrial Technology. Recommended for students entering into engineering drawing without a drawing background.
(39.6 Lec. Hrs./39.6 Lab Hrs.)
 
 
EG:105   Introduction to Engineering   2 cr.
This is the basic introductory course in engineering. It provides the student with an overview of the several disciplines of engineering, i.e., chemical, civil, electrical, industrial/management, mechanical, nuclear, petroleum, etc., and enumerates career opportunities. As an adjunct to the material, the student utilizes a pocket calculator to solve representative engineering problems.
(39.6 Lec. Hrs.)
 
 
EG:110   Elements of Electrical Engineering   3 cr.
This is an introductory course in the study of electrical engineering. This course builds on the concepts introduced in physics and mathematics and expands the student's knowledge of electricity and magnetic forces, circuit theory and electromechanical energy conversion, basic electronics and electric fields, and power generation.
(59.4 Lec. Hrs.)
Prerequisite: EG:105
 
 
EG:117   Engineering Drawing I   3 cr.
This course deals with the integration of freehand sketching and computer drawing of orthographic projection; theory of pictorial drawing, basic dimensioning and working drawings; the analysis and synthesis of theoretical and practical problems involving the size, shape and/or relative position of common geometric magnitudes as points, lines and planes.
(39.6 Lec. Hrs./39.6 Lab Hrs.)
 
 
EG:122   Engineering Drawing II   3 cr.
Continuation of EG:117. Includes basic working drawings completed with AutoCAD software. AutoCAD problems are similar to the conventional problems from EG:117. Key elements of engineering geometry, intersection and developments, engineering dimensioning, limits and fits, design drawings.
(39.6 Lec. Hrs./39.6 Lab Hrs.)
Prerequisite: EG:117 or the equivalent.
 
 
EG:125   Design I   4 cr.
The student is introduced to the design process utilized in the engineering approach to problem solving. Students participate in design projects which require research, creativity, analysis and synthesis for a solution.
(79.2 Lec. Hrs.)
 
 
EG:130   Design II   4 cr.
A continuation of EG:125, utilizing the team approach to the solution of semester-long engineering design projects/problems, using input data which is adapted from real world problems. Additional conceptual data introduces the student to modeling simulation, economics of engineering, patents, planning and human factors.
(79.2 Lec. Hrs.)
Prerequisite: EG:125
 
 
EG:145   Engineering Economics   3 cr.
An introductory course in engineering and economics. Intended for students who have little or no background in economics, accounting or statistics. Introduces such concepts as time value of money, economy studies, selections among alternatives, replacement studies, capital budgeting and new operations research/systems analysis techniques to maximize return on investment.
(59.4 Lec. Hrs.)
 
 
EG:210   Engineering Dynamics   3 cr.
Dynamics considers kinematics and kinetics. Kinematics considers the motion of particles, lines and bodies without regard to the forces required to produce or maintain the motion. Kinetics considers unbalanced force systems that produce acceleration motion of bodies, change the internal properties of the bodies and influence the resultant motion. Together statics and dynamics comprise the body of knowledge called engineering mechanics.
(59.4 Lec. Hrs.)
Prerequisite: EG:220
 
 
EG:215   Engineering Problems   2 cr.
Designed to aid engineering students in the solving of problems. Emphasis on orderly solution methods. Some problems will involve programming and nonprogrammable calculators and others will involve programming with the FORTRAN language.
(39.6 Lec. Hrs.)
Prerequisite: MA:136 and MA:140 or equivalent.
Co-requisite: CS:246
 
 
EG:220   Engineering Statics   3 cr.
Study of objects at rest or in uniform motion. Includes units, force vectors, equivalent force systems, rigid bodies, structural analysis, internal forces, friction, center of gravity, moments and products of inertia, and virtual work. Primarily for pre-engineering students.
(59.4 Lec. Hrs.)
Prerequisite: MA:150-151
Co-requisite: MA:155-156
