Pre-Engineering

Eijiro Uchimoto (Professor, Dept . of Physics and Astronomy), Advisor

Andrew Ware (Professor, Dept. of Physics and Astronomy) Advisor

The pre-engineering curriculum is for students planning to transfer to and accredited engineering program. Since engineering curricula differ for the different divisions of engineering, the general curriculum listed below serves only as a guide. A student planning to transfer into a particular type of engineering should look for the appropriate program guide on the Pre-engineering web site and consult with his or her advisor.

Courses

U=for undergraduate credit only, UG=for undergraduate or graduate credit, G=for graduate credit. R after the credit indicates the course may be repeated for credit to the maximum indicated after the R. Credits beyond this maximum do not count toward a degree.

General Engineering (EGEN)

U 101 (PHYS 175) Introduction to Engineering 3 cr. Offered autumn. Prereq. or coreq., M 151 (MATH 121) or equivalent. An introduction to engineering calculations, problem solving, and design. Students are taught to solve and present engineering problems on computers using spreadsheet and graphic software (AutoCAD). In addition, there will be discussions on engineering failures and engineering ethics.
