Department of Physical Sciences

3 Credit(s) Hours: 5 hrs.

For a beginning engineering students, hands-on investigations and an appreciation of the importance of engineering in our society. In the laboratory, students will investigate problems relevant to the study of engineering, including mechanical, robotic and bridge design. Computers will be utilized for all relevant laboratory sessions. Lecture discussions will include preparation for the labs and discussions of approaches engineers have used to solve difficult problems.

Prerequisite(s): CUNY English and MAT 900

Prerequisite(s)/Corequisite(s): MAT 1400; or Department Permission
