ENGG 1100

This course provides an introduction to engineering and design. An overview of design processes is covered and students experience a defined, open-ended design project. Physical design development is emphasized, supplemented by elements of analysis. Engineering communications emphasize the visual form and span engineering drawings across a spectrum of engineering disciplines (2D and 3D, realistic and symbolic). Sketching and computer aided tools are both developed. Written communications (individual and team) focus on design. The practice of professional engineering, ethical principles and the engineer's role and obligations in society are all introduced. The coursework is team-based to reflect the practice of engineering and the character of the College of Engineering.
