ENGR 110 C Introduction to Engineering
3 Units
Term hours: 36 lecture and 72 laboratory. This is an introductory course which utilizes drafting and the CAD system for engineering applications. The course incorporates elementary principles associated with the board drawing and the various menu and command structures in computerassisted drafting (CAD) in order to develop solutions to 2D and 3D design problems. Topics included are drawing of points, lines, planes, plane intersections, orthographic projection, dimensioning, line types, tolerances, file management, and layering. (UC/CSU) Same as ENGT 110 C. Prerequisite: MATH 040 C or MATH 041 C with minimum grades of “C.” Term hours: 54 lecture. This course is an introduction to engineering as a profession and its associated career responsibilities and opportunities. It also presents an overview of each engineering discipline; illustrates opportunities and challenges in the engineering profession and provides tools for becoming a successful student. Students learn about current trends and issues in engineering career and academic options. Representatives from industry and academic institutions present overviews of the engineering field and describe potential job opportunities. Field trips to various companies and engineering facilities provide an insight into different aspects of engineering. This course includes the application of engineering and scientific problem solving methods to introductory mechanics and electricity. It also meets requirements for credit in Engineering. Pass/No Pass/Letter Grade Option. (UC/CSU)
