In Principles of Applied Engineering (POAE) students are introduced to the engineering profession and a common approach to the solution of engineering problems, an engineering design process. Though rigorous activities and project based learning, students will progress from completing structured activities to solving open-ended projects and problems that require them to develop planning, documentation, communication, and other professional skills.
Through both individual and collaborative team activities, projects, and problems, students will solve problems as they practice common engineering design and development protocols such as project management and peer review. Students will develop skill in technical representation and documentation of design solutions according to accepted technical standards, and they will use current 3D design and modeling software to represent and communicate solutions. In addition, the development of computational methods that are commonly used in engineering problem solving, including statistical analysis and mathematical modeling, are emphasized.
This course offers student s the chance to earn an Industry Based Certification as an Autodesk Certified User (ACU) - Fusion 360. More information about the certification can be found on our Certification page.
