ENGINEERING
Division: Science, Engineering, and Mathematics
Introduction to Engineering
36.00 hrs lecture, 54.00 hrs lab
Units: 3.00
Advisory: Eligible for ENGL-151B and ENGL-163
Accepted For Credit: CSU & UC
This course explores the field of engineering and its different
branches. It provides hands-on design projects including
experimentation, team work, ethics, and the application of
basic scientific principles to practical situations. (GC)
How Technology Works
54.00 hrs lecture, 54.00 hrs lab
Units: 4.00
Cross-referenced Course: CNET-114
Accepted For Credit: CSU
This course is intended for students of all disciplines who are
interested in how everyday things work. It is an introduction to
some of the fundamental science concepts underpinning high
technology, emphasizing everyday devices and practical
experience, for the development of scientific and computer
literacy. Students will experiment with technology to discover
principles of science. Concepts such as force, work, energy,
power, liquids and gasses, heat transfer, electricity, magnetism,
electronics, light, materials science, and time are explored
through experimentation and observation. Students will
experience through class demonstrations and hands-on
laboratories the concepts presented by the instructor.
Phenomena such as how computers convert data, how iPods
transmit sound, how electronic thermometers measure
temperature, how solar heating panels capture heat, and how
GPSs use microwaves will be explored. Field trips to local tech
industry displays are required. (GC)
Engineering Graphics and Design
54.00 hrs lecture, 54.00 hrs lab
Units: 4.00
Advisory: Eligible for ENGL-151B, MATH-151
Accepted For Credit: CSU & UC
This course covers the principles of graphic expression by
means of technical sketching, and computer aided drafting.

Engineering Mechanics – Statics
54.00 hrs lecture
Units: 3.00
Prerequisite: PHYS-140 and MATH-101B
Accepted For Credit: CSU & UC
This course is a study of force systems and equilibrium in two
and three dimensional structures, distributed forces, friction,
and virtual work. (GR)
Electric Circuit Analysis
54.00 hrs lecture, 54.00 hrs lab
Units: 4.00
Prerequisite: MATH-101B and PHYS-141
Advisory: Eligible for ENGL-151B and ENGL-163
Accepted For Credit: CSU & UC
This course is a study of DC and AC linear circuits and transient
and steady state analysis. Experimental techniques,
instrumentation, and circuit simulation will be covered in the
lab. (GR)
ENGI-135 Introduction to Robotics and Automated Systems
54.00 hrs lecture, 54.00 hrs lab
Units: 4.00
Cross-referenced Course: CNET-115
Accepted For Credit: CSU
Students who take this class will understand how scientific
innovation can affect their lives either directly or indirectly. The
class will teach students the principles of scientific
methodology as it is applied to solving problems. The
application of this scientific method will be used to navigate an
abundance of technical information – to obtain the
information, to understand the information, and to determine
how to apply it. This course describes the functional hardware
and software components of Automated Systems. The student
will experience how scientific principles are applied by building
and programming robots. The emphasis is for students to learn
science by actually doing science. Repeatable = 3 times (GC)

Units: 4.00
Prerequisite: CHEM-101A and PHYS-140
Accepted For Credit: CSU & UC
This course covers atomic and crystal structures; imperfections;
diffusion and relation between microstructure; the properties
of engineering materials such as metals, polymers, ceramics
and composites; phase equilibrium and transformations;
mechanical, electrical, thermal, magnetic and optical
properties; corrosion; and material degradation. (GC)
