In ENGR 130: Foundations of Engineering and Programming at Case Western Reserve University, I gained experience applying engineering problem-solving methods through hands-on projects and computational tools. I developed programming skills in MATLAB to analyze data, model systems, and automate problem solutions, while also strengthening my understanding of core engineering concepts such as design, teamwork, and communication. The course emphasized collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity, which helped me build a strong foundation for both technical coursework and real-world engineering challenges.
