EG10111/10112
The most important thing for you to know about EG 10111 and EG 10112 is that they are NOT science courses. Science is concerned with "what is." Engineering is concerned about "what can be." Engineers make things work faster, better, and less expensively. They deal with very technical matters,but they also serve humanity on the most basic levels. In the first-year courses EG 10111 and EG 10112, you'll begin to learn how to solve engineering problems, discover how to work in a team, and experience the different disciplines available within the College of Engineering. Covering the basics of the engineering method, the courses include guest lecturers, special projects, and use of the computer in solving engineering problems.

Solving problems
EG 10111 and EG 10112 will help you develop and apply fundamental engineering skills. You'll learn how to understand a system from a multidisciplinary viewpoint. Why? Because when you understand how the parts work as a whole, you can obtain a better solution.
-
Working in a team
Designing systems – something you'll do as an engineer – means you'll be working as a member of a team. In these courses, we lay the foundation for future relationships. You'll verify and communicate results; build, test, and demonstrate a product or process; and participate in group presentations. You'll learn how to use the tools available to you as an engineer and work with other team members to solve interesting and important problems.
