ENGR 13000 - Transforming Ideas Into Innovations


Credit Hours: 4.00. This introductory course to engineering teaches skills in managing complex problems related to design, systems analysis with computational tools, and academic professional development. Through multiple experiences, students will learn effective methods to design and analyze behaviors of complex engineering systems with an eye for innovation. These experiences will develop their skills in teaming, project management, logical reasoning, sustainability, coupled with oral, written and visual communication for multiple audiences. This course also develops students ability to build computational tools (e.g., Python, MATLAB and Excel) to analyze the performance of systems using fundamental concepts associated with physical science and data science (e.g., mathematical modeling, data processing, numerical modeling, statistics). Professional identify development is critical to preparing students for making an informed decision in their choice of major and the development of professional skills to succeed in that major. Therefore, the course includes learning experiences to help them gather and process information about all the engineering academic pathways they could choose at Purdue. Permission of instructor required.Credits: 4.00
