IEN 130 - Intergrated Engineering II


This course is intended for students majoring in Civil, Mechanical, Computing and Electrical Engineering, with the major emphasis on understanding basic mathematical and physical concepts and using them to solve a variety of engineering problems. The course covers differential and integral calculus (Integration techniques, application of integrals, parametric equations and polar coordinates, series and sequences, and an introduction to differential equations), and relates the mathematical principles to physical problems both analytically and by using an applying a high level engineering computing language. The previous courses’ computing skills are applied throughout, and programming skills are expanded. In addition, the course will include the topics waves and interference, optics, and electrical and magnetic phenomena. A primary focus of the courses is to link the learning of calculus with the exploration of the physical world, and extensive use of inverted learning, problem based learning and peer instruction is made. The course may be taught by multiple faculty members.
