ENGR 100, a five-credit course, introduces freshmen and pre-engineering majors to engineering design. There is no prerequisite except creativity.

 

A class focused on projects:
Students taking ENGR 100 design and build a variety of machines and structures to learn hands-on the basic engineering design principles. The design projects vary each quarter, and may include:



ENGR 100 Goals
Through engineering projects, students learn the design process and the associated skills: communicating, creative problem solving, computing, and working in teams. Students also see first-hand how math and science relate to the field of engineering. And because of the small classes, instructors can provide students with extensive feedback, and students can learn from one another. With the class, students gain engineering experience and can begin to decide if engineering is the right career for them.
