ENGR 2105 Engineering Foundations Studio V
In this course students will conduct semester-long projects in human-centered engineering analysis. In small groups and with a faculty advisor, students will identify a topic of interest in the domains of health, energy, or the environment; conduct background research using literature sources; define a problem and an appropriate engineering methodology; execute their analysis; and prepare a report of their conclusions. Students will be expected to identify and apply mathematical, scientific, and engineering concepts relevant to their project. Students will gain experience with project management, teamwork, and professional communication.
