Engineering Technology EGNT 101 – 3 Credits Introduction to Engineering Technology Covers topics in a variety of construction and engineering disciplines. This course examines the methods and processes used in the civil, surveying, construction, biotechnical, electrical, mechanical, and other engineering fields. Topics include soil mechanics, project management, technical organization, and measurement equipment. This course serves as the basis for the Engineering Assocaite curriculum. 3 lecture hours per week. Prerequisites: RDNG 052 and ENGL 052 EGNT 121 – 3 Credits Statics Covers fundamental concepts of mechanics relating to forces acting on rigid bodies. Other topics included are problems involving actions and reactions on structures and machines in two and three dimensions, vector algebra operations, and centroids. 2 lecture, 2 laboratory hours per week. Prerequisite: MATH 135 EGNT 221 – 3 Credits Strengths and Materials Prepares technicians to design mechanical components and structures, predict failures, and understand physical properties of materials. The student is introduced to stress and strain relationships in deformable solids and analysis of axial members, shafts, beams, columns, and pressure vessels. other topics include combined stresses, statically indetermined members, and properties of structural materials. Applied rather than theoretical, the course emphasizes problem solving. 2 lecture, 2 laboratory hours per week. Prerequisite: EGNT 121 EGNT 226 – 3 Credits Engineering Process and Methods Covers tasks and elements involved in basic engineering problem solving. This course focuses on the aspects of field information collection and documentation and identification of available and necessary testing to resolve technical and engineering issues. 3 lecture hours per week. Prerequisite: EGNT 101
