Engineering Science courses are supplemented by courses in Mechanical, Civil, Computer & Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
A course to introduce freshman engineering students to the engineering curriculum and the engineering profession. A broad introduction to the study and practice of engineering, professional development, academic success strategies, and orientation to the engineering education system. One class meeting per week. Fall
The First-Year Seminar (FYS) introduces new 91勛圖厙 students to the University, the Core Curriculum, and 91勛圖厙s Jesuit mission and heritage. While the seminars will be taught by faculty with expertise in particular disciplines, topics will be addressed in a way that illustrates approaches and methods of different academic disciplines. The seminar format of the course highlights the participatory character of university life, emphasizing that learning is an active, collegial process.
This course introduces the use of Python programming as an applied tool to solve engineering problems across many fields including data analysis, visualization, and computation. Skills developed in the problem-solving process improve procedural thinking, design of solutions, and debugging. Use of projects throughout the course to support engaged learning.
A vector treatment of systems of forces and moments in equilibrium. Topics include centroids, distributed loads, effects of friction; analysis of trusses and frames and calculations of moments of inertia. PHYS 103 is a co-requisite or pre-requisite for this course.
Prerequisite:
PHYS 103 Minimum Grade: D
or PHYS 121 Minimum Grade: D

The Core Integration Seminar (CIS) engages the Year Four Question: Imagining the possible: What is our role in the world? by offering students a culminating seminar experience in which students integrate the principles of Jesuit education, prior components of the Core, and their disciplinary expertise. Each section of the course will focus on a problem or issue raised by the contemporary world that encourages integration, collaboration, and problem solving. The topic for each section of the course will be proposed and developed by each faculty member in a way that clearly connects to the Jesuit Mission, to multiple disciplinary perspectives, and to our students future role in the world.
