What is Engineering and What do Engineers do ? How do Engineers Think and Solve Problems ? Can l Experience Engineering? YES! In the classroom: Curiosity is Fostered in Hands-on, Minds-on Projects Students are Active Participants with Faculty Mentors Learning is integrated across disciplines and skills Relevance of Math, Physics, & Social Science in Engineering is emphasized Modeling, measurement, computing, and communication skills are developed Basic Building Blocks of Engineering motivated by real- world devices and systems are learned

6 September 2005A. A. Abouzeid Fall 2005 New Course “Foundations of Engineering” Registration and Course Selection Information ENGR-1963 “Foundations of Engineering” (2 credits) replaces “Engineering Discovery,” which is described in the Planning Your First Semester book. “FE” Students will choose one of the three sections when they register at SO: only pre-designated “FE” students will be able to get into these sections. “FE” Students should NOT register for ENGR-1100 “Introduction to Engineering Analysis” in the first term. This course may be taken without penalty in the spring term. ENGR 1963 “Foundations of Engineering” (2 credits) has been offered as a free elective option to all First Year Engineering students About 200 students expressed interest 120 have been invited into the 3 sections to be offered in the Fall of 2005 Current plan is to repeat the course in the Spring of 2006

(ELEC and CSYS majors should take CS1 in the first term.)

6 September 2005A. A. Abouzeid Steps to you build your schedule Read Planning Your First Semester Use the class hour schedule for courses listed in planner Look up the course and section times to begin to build your schedule ( e.g. Calculus I) Have several schedules worked out before tomorrow’s registration because some classes will be closed. Questions about how to build your schedule?

6 September 2005A. A. Abouzeid If you have been awarded AP credit for a subject, then you may want to use the credit and advance to the next level, or take another class. Things to consider…(especially for sequence courses such as Calculus II, Physics II and Chemistry II)  Did you understand all of the concepts in your AP class?  Did you study 2 or more hours a day for your AP class? Go over the Math study guide for Calculus I and Calculus II  If the questions are answered yes and you can solve the sample problems, you should go on to the next course (Calculus II, Physics II)  If there are some maybes or no answers, you should take Calculus I, Physics I or Chemistry I 78% of the students who went on to Calculus II received a B or higher in Calculus II 89% of the students who went on to Physics II received a B or higher in Physics II Advanced Placement Questions
