ENGINEERING PROBLEM SOLVING II - 3777 - ENGR 102 - 01



Learning Objectives: By the end of the course, successful students will be able to Work collaboratively in a team Use problem-solving techniques and apply knowledge of mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus), science (basic chemistry and physics) and engineering principles to solve engineering problems Define and formulate engineering problems in a form solvable on a computer Break a problem into the necessary steps and develop an algorithm for its solution Represent the algorithm as a flow chart or pseudo-code Convert the flow chart or pseudo-code into a MATLAB program Model behavior of elements within a system to understand better a problem which needs to be solved Apply computer programming logic and principles, as part of the problem-solving process, to write code to perform computations, analyze data, plot data, and create a model of a system Use MATLAB as an engineering tool to perform computations, analyze data, plot data, and model a simple system as part of solving an engineering problem
