EGN 2001C - Skills and Design 1
Credits: 2
Course Description: This course aims to integrate engineering design activities with engineering graphical communications using Computer Aided Design (CAD) software and professional skills emphasizing teaming and leadership, and communication in a variety of mediums. Computer Aided Design (CAD) software is used as a tool to create 2D and 3D sketches, 3D parts, 3D assemblies, and engineering drawing per industry standards. Skills in parametric modeling include planning and model strategy, dimensioning and tolerances, perspectives, and use of basic features in the CAD software. The project will allow students to integrate these basic skills with additive manufacturing processes to develop solutions to real world engineering problems. This course will develop students’ knowledge of design processes as well as basic mechanical engineering skills, which will begin to prepare them for future open-ended problems in their capstone design course.

EGN 3016C - Mechanical Lab Design 2
Credits: 3
Prerequisites: EGN 3015C - Mechanical Lab Design 1
Course Description: This course is a continuation of Mechanical Lab Design 1. Students will be reassembled into teams and tasked with reverse engineering and refining previously created alpha prototype laboratory apparatuses. After refinement student teams will perform testing along with simulation, verification, and validation of their experiments. Teams will then engage in peer-to-peer learning with other laboratory groups and eventual cycle through all the student generated laboratory exercises in heat transfer, fluids, vibration, and controls. Additionally, student teams will also cycle through other fundamental mechanical engineering laboratory exercises including mechanics and materials and beam deflection.
