    This course introduces the concepts and techniques of parametric feature-based 3D CAD modeling with the Autodesk Inventor software. The course will cover basic and intermediate commands and concepts to create, edit, manipulate and plot part and assembly models and drawings. Using digital prototype models of industrial, mechanical, and consumer products, the students will perform rendering and analysis of design, animation and dynamic simulation of parts and assemblies, as well as interfacing with Digital Manufacturing and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing. Completion of this course will prepare the student to take the Autodesk Inventor User certification test. Formerly ENGG205. Pre- or coreq. - CADM205.

    This course introduces the concepts and techniques of parametric feature-based Revit 3D modeling software. The course will cover the software's user interface and the basic commands found in the Architectural, Mechanical Electrical Plumbing (MEP) and Structural discipline-specific versions of the software. Although not discipline specific, this course will also familiarize students with the tools required to create, document, manipulate, and print the parametric models. It will demonstrate how to navigate a walk-through of a 3D model using Autodesk Navisworks. Completion of this course will prepare the student with the knowledge to advance to taking a discipline-specific Revit course. Prereq.- CADM100 or ARCH101 or CMGT104.

    This course is an algebra-based introduction for the analytical study of the effects of forces acting on a body at rest. Includes the study of centroids, area moment of inertia, trusses, and frames. Analysis of axial, shear, and torsional stresses and strains in machine and structural elements such as beams, columns, and shafts under static, impact, and dynamic loads are covered. Concepts of thinned-walled cylinders, joints, couplings, shear and moment diagrams, and the design of beams are discussed. Prereq. - PHYS101.

    Chemistry I is a qualitative and quantitative study, both in the classroom and the laboratory, of matter and energy as they relate to the chemical properties of solids, liquids, gases, and solutions. Topics include stoichiometry, atomic/ molecular structure, bonding, states of matter, changes of state, and solutions. A quantitative study of each area is stressed; a strong background in chemistry and mathematics is required. This course is intended for science and engineering majors. Prereq. - Appropriate competence as outlined in the Mathematics Placement policy or MATH 022; Chemistry (1 year of high school chemistry or CHEM 011); and Reading and writing competence as determined for ENGL 101. Core: SCI.
