Instructors & Office Hours Course Schedule, Notes and Assignments Grading & Classroom Policies

Meeting Times and Place:   Lectures: Mondays Laboratory: Wednesdays 10.00 - 10.50 AM 8.00 - 10.45 AM   Rowan Room 204   Rowan Room 237 Course Description: This course is a continuation of Freshman Engineering Clinic I and provides an expanded treatment of the practice of engineering through applications drawn from engineering disciplines.  A focus of the term will be on reverse engineering while covering such topics as statistics, enegineering economics as we as nondestructive testing and invasive testing. Project work will involve a variety of technical communication papers, analytic and computer based tools, including the design process, engineering ethics, safety, and team work Instructional Objectives: The objectives of this course are to –  Introducing freshmen to the science and art of design by evaluating the work of practicing designers Introduce multidisciplinary teams of engineering students to unifying engineering science principles of mass, heat, momentum and energy balances; materials; thermodynamics, and electricity/magnetism using the consumer appliance as a test bed,  Enable students to determine how scientific principles, material properties, manufacturing techniques, cost, safety requirements, environmental considerations and intellectual property rights impact the design of a product,  Allow freshman students to actively participate in a meaningful design effort by instrumenting and evaluating the performance of a consumer appliance, Development of technical communication skills in graphical, written, and oral formats  Continue development of time management, and critical thinking skillsIdentify, describe and market their unique technical and professional skill portfolio in electrical and computer engineering. Semester Hours: 2 Prerequisites: Freshman Engineering Clinic I.
