2024-2025 Course List

Theory and practice in the development and production of proposals, focusing on the researching, writing, and management of proposals by technical communicators.

User experience is a more holistic, contextualized approach to understanding an individuals encounter with technologies, systems, and documents. The course addresses theory, research findings, case studies, and methods for conducting user experience research.

Survey of language tests and other forms of related assessment that measure various second language abilities.

Literary and non-literary translation.

This course will involve the preparation of a portfolio in consultation with instructor.

Examination of the social factors and conventions that inform language choices, how sociolinguistic and pragmatic norms differ among social, cultural, and language groups, and how language learners acquire these norms.

Independent capstone experience, focusing on secondary research sources; paper may have other guidelines specific to the program option.

In this course, taken in the last year of MS coursework, students demonstrate their mastery of technical communication by creating a professional portfolio of advanced technical communication materials.

Independent capstone experience, guidelines of which are determined by the requirements of a particular program option.

On-site field experience, the nature of which is determined by the specific needs of the student's program option.

Independent capstone experience, guidelines of which are determined by the requirements of a particular program option.

Introduction of the engineering design process, professional skills necessary for the modern engineer, learning strategies needed for academic success, and overview of engineering applications relevant to society. Students will use engineering tools to complete an engineering team project.

This course introduces linear circuit analysis with an emphasis on design of circuits. Topics include: physical principles underlying circuit element models; Kirchhoff's laws; series and parallel resistive circuits; independent and dependent sources; node-voltage and mesh-current methods; Norton and Thevenin theorems; phasors; transient and steady state first- and second-order circuits; power; and use of elements in circuit design.

Prerequisites:

MATH 122, PHYS 222

This course explores the experimental aspects of Linear Circuit Analysis and Design. Experiments will familiarize students with electrical laboratory equipment. Concepts discussed in ENGR 240 will be verified. Circuit theory will be applied in design experiences. Admitted to an Integrated Engineering program.

Prerequisites:

ENGR 240

Engineers use spoken, written and visual forms to communicate technical information related to research, projects, and processes to a variety of audiences. Students will choose to focus on developing skills in at least one of the three forms and contextualize that using project or work-based experiences in engineering.Can be repeated for credit up to 3 credits with different forms of technical communication (spoken, written, visual) addressed.Credits apply only to program communication requirements.

Prerequisites:

ENG 101

Engineers use writing to organize their understanding of technical ideas, prepare for research activity, and disseminate knowledge generated through research. Students will develop a research proposal, a research paper for submission to a conference or journal, or a background literature review summarizing multiple resources.Can be repeated for credit with different topics and/or different writing types.Credits apply only to program communication requirements.

Prerequisites:

ENG 101

This class provides MAX scholars with an opportunity to explore a set of topics related to achieving success in academic, professional and personal realms. Speakers will include faculty, graduate students, visiting researchers and industry members as well as student participants.Prereq: Recipient of a MAX scholarship or instructor consent

Prerequisites:

Recipient of a MAX scholarship or instructor consent

Varied topics in engineering not covered in other 100 or 200-level courses. May be repeated for each new topic.

An introductory project-based learning experience in engineering designed to prepare students for upper-division project-based work. Students will be exposed to teamwork, self-regulated learning, and the design process as they participate in the design and implementation of an engineering project.

Prerequisites:

Admission to Integrated Engineering major or consent.

Students working towards a minor in the Department of Integrated Engineering will participate in and reflect on the engineering design process, the professional aspects of working on an engineering team, and the intersection of engineering projects and their major. Design activities include such things as scoping, modeling, experimentation, analysis, modern tools, design reviews,multi-disciplinary systems view, creativity, safety, business plans, and global/societal/environmental impacts.

Prerequisites:

Students must be admitted to the Department of Integrated Engineering minor or certificate programs.

Students learn and practice the essential elements of engineering design through industry project implementation: scoping, modeling, experimentation, analysis, modern tools, design reviews, multi-disciplinary systems view, creativity, safety, business plans, global/societal/environmental impacts.

Students further learn and practice the elements of engineering design through industry project implementation: scoping, modeling, experimentation, analysis, modern tools, design reviews, multi-disciplinary systems view, creativity, safety, business plans, global/societal/environmental impacts.

Prerequisites:

ENGR 301

Students learn and develop the elements of professionalism while operating in project teams interacting daily with clients from industry. Topics include leadership, metacognition, teamwork, written and oral communication, ethics and professional and personal responsibility.

Students further learn and develop the elements of professionalism while operating in project teams interacting daily with clients from industry. Topics include further examination of leadership, metacognition, teamwork, written and oral communication, ethics, and professional and personal responsibility.

Prerequisites:

ENGR 311W

Introduction to statistics in an engineering context. Design of experiments and data collection, descriptive statistics, inferential statistics including hypothesis testing, and statistical software are introduced and applied. Students will do in-depth learning of some aspect of content area. Coursework may be tied to project work.

Prerequisites:

Admission to major, minor or certificate programs.
