• ENGR 160: Engineering Fundamentals

  3.00 Credits

  Community College of Beaver County

  
  Engineering Fundamentals provides a baseline of engineering and mathematical laws and principles applicable to the engineering profession. The course explores how engineers apply analytical practices and problem solving skills to design, test, fabricate, and maintain engineered products and services that people use every day. Engineering analysis, experimentation, and design are applied to real problems from initial concept to final specifications. Individual and team projects are utilized to reinforce the skills engineers need to successfully implement engineering practices. Project results are evaluated in terms of technical and economic feasibility and social significance. 3-0-3 Prerequisites: MATH 130 or MATH 155
