ENGR 151 Applied Physics for Engineering Design I

This course is the first calculus-based applied physics course intended for engineering majors, with a special emphasis on scientific problem definition and solution development related to engineering design. Course topics include studying forces and motion, and the properties of matter and heat. Topics will include motion in one, two, and three dimensions, mechanical equilibrium, momentum, energy, rotational motion and dynamics, periodic motion, and conservation laws. This course has a laboratory component with design experiences to reinforce the physics concepts introduced in the lectures as well as coding, experimental design, data collection and analysis, and preparation of engineering reports.
