(DESCRIPTIONS AND PREREQUISITES) |
| ENTE 160 |
Manufacturing Processes |
3 CR |
| A hands-on introduction to the processes used to measure, form, fabricate, machine, and finish materials. Laboratory experience in a variety of machining and welding processes will take place at the Regional Manufacturing Technology Center in the Fort Custer Industrial Park. This course will be self-paced instruction through a series of learning modules. Please see your advisor for more details. [0-64-64] Lab Fee |

Material Science |
3 CR |
| This course is intended to introduce the student to the materials used in engineering/industry and their properties. The types of material studied will include ferrous and nonferrous metals, plastics, rubber, ceramics, glass, and cement. In addition, material inspection, testing, and the effects of heat treatment and corrosion will be studied. Laboratory experiences will include the testing and inspection of materials.

Statics and Strengths of Materials |
3 CR |
| Prerequisite: MATH 118 or TEMA 111. This course is a study of the force systems which act on an object at rest and the behavior of materials when placed under loads and restraints. Topics will include calculating centers of gravity and moments of inertia; predicting the effect of forces applied in tension, compression, shear, and torsion on riveted and welded joints; and developing bending moment diagrams for beams and columns. Laboratory experiences will focus on the methods of material testing. [48-16-64] Lab Fee |
