ASEngineering – Degree Plan • Plan for CE, ChemE, IE, ME, others
Calculus, Calculus, Calculus • MTH1 (Calculus) is a Prerequisite to TWELVE (12) other Science & Engineering Courses in the Engineering TRANSFER-PATH • Engineering Students Should Get to MTH1 Absolutely as SOON as Possible
ENGR 10 Global Wrap Up • Hopefully by Now Everyone in the Class Has a Good Idea About • What Engineers Do In Practice • The Skills, Techniques, and Motivation Needed to Successfully Complete The Engineering Academic Preparation • i.e., To Receive the Baccalaureate Degree • Also Hopefully Many In the Class have Chosen Engineering as a CAREER • It’s NOT a Job, it’s a Professional Career
The Instructor’s Best Advice • For Everyone Who Has Decided on Engineering as: • A Course of College/University Study • A Working LifeTime Career... Take AS MANY COURSES AS POSSIBLE at the COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Why Community College? • 1 Big Reason; Several Smaller ones • Biggest Reason → As GOOD, or Even BETTER, Instruction For Lower Division CourseWork (1st Two College Years) • Applies to ALL Academic Disciplines • e.g., Math, Science, English, History, etc.
Recall Visit by UCBerkeley Dean • Fa08 Guest Speaker R. Giomi of UCB’s College of Engineering noted • 81% of Freshmen graduate from the UCB CoE • 91% of Freshmen graduate from UCB • 93% of TRANSFERS graduate from the CoE
ClassRoom Performance GPA • Per R. Giomi, Asst. Dean At the UCBerkeley College of Engineering • Grades Earned for 3rd & 4th Year Students are Statistically INDISTINGUISHABLE Between Native & Transfer Students
Why Community College? Cont. • Other Reasons • Reduced Cost (see next Slide) • Smaller Class Sizes • More Personal Atmosphere • Enhanced Support Services • Generally More Convenient • Much Greater Flexibility • UC’s Often have “progress” Requirements • To Take Fewer Than 12 Units May Require a Special Waiver
Transfer Prep – NEED to Have • Take ALL ADVANCED MATH Courses • Math: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 • Take ALL Sci/Engr PHYSICS Courses • Physics: 4A, 4B, 4C (and Possibly 5) • Chemistry: 1A (and Possibly 1B) • Computer Sci: 14 (and Possibly 15) • English: 1A & 4/7 • SPEECH: 1 (Required by CSU)
Transfer Prep – NEED to Have • Engineering • All Disciplines: 10, 11, 22, 25, 36, 43, 45 • ENGR22 May Be Omitted in Certain Cases for These Disciplines (chk w/ Xfer Univ) • EE • MSE • American Cultures • e.g; HIST7 or HIST8
Transfer Prep – GOOD to Have • Organic Chemistry • Chem: 8 or 12A • More WRITING; e.g., ENGL 4, 7, 11 • Almost Every Engineer Can CALCULATE and DESIGN • Good Writing Skills will DISTINGUISH you From your Less Capable Colleagues • Public Speaking; e.g., SPCH 3
Transfer Prep – GOOD to Have • Manufacturing Processes: one of • MTT 70 – Intro to Machine Shop • MTT 60A – Machine Tool Tech-I • WELD 70 – Intro to Welding • ESYS 52 – Electronic Systems Fabrication Techniques • ESYS 53 – E-Systems Measurements • The Above are Usually Not Transferable to UC
Chabot ENGR Class Prep • ALL ENGR Classes • Strong Interest in the Field Because it is WAY-COOL • Willingness To THINK and STUDY like an ENGINEER • Recall Lecture on Study Skills • Also in Labs, Use All the Equipment, Be the First to Volunteer
Chabot ENGR Class Prep cont • ENGR22 – Engineering Design Graphics (AutoCAD Software) • Nice to Have • MATH 36 or 37 • ENGL 1A or 52A • ENGR25 – Computational Methods (MATLAB Software) • PreReq = MATH 1 • Nice to Have = CAS8 or CSCI8
Chabot ENGR Class Prep cont • ENGR11 – Design and Analysis • Nice to Have • MATH 36 or 37 • ENGR 22 (REALLY Nice to Have) • ENGR36 – Engineering Mechanics → Static Structures • PreReqs • ENGR 25 • Physics 4A
Chabot ENGR Class Prep cont • ENGR43 – Electrical Circuit Analysis • PreReqs • ENGR 25 • PHYS 4A • Good to HAVE (may be Concurrent) • MATH 4 • MATH 6 • PHYS 4B • Particularly Helpful
Chabot ENGR Class Prep cont • ENGR45 – Materials of Engineering • PreReqs • CHEM 1A • PHYS 4A • ENGR25 • Good to HAVE (may be Concurrent) • CHEM 1B • MATH 2 • PHYS 4B
Transfer-ONLY Education Plan • SUMMER Term Possibilities • ENGL 1A & 7, MTH1, HIST7
Xfer Planning ASSIST.ORG • UCDavis Mechanical Engineering
Calculus, Calculus, Calculus • MTH1 (Calculus) is a Prerequisite for TWELVE (12) other Science & Engineering Courses in the Engineering TRANSFER-PATH • Engineering Students Should Get to MTH1 Absolutely as SOON as Possible
Engineering is THE BEST Compensated of the Major Bachelor’s Degrees EngineeringNoted in GREENColor
I hope that Everyone will Take Engineering 11 &22 Next Term 95% Chance You can Add if Needed
Sp10: “HeadsUp” to ENGR11 Students • The REALLY GOOD TextBook Went out of Print UnExpectedly in Fall 2009 • The BookStore Will NOT Carry it • BUT the SP10 Edition of ENGR11 WILL STILL USE it • Please buy OnLine Used Copies • Rudolph J. Eggert, “Engineering Design”, Prentice Hall, 2004, ISBN13: 9780131433588, ISBN10: 0-13-143358-X
122 Questions & Problems Total Questions: Quantity and Form 12 True/False 68 Multiple Choice 32 Short Answer 10 UNIT CONVERSION Problems Exam: Tue/15Dec, 10am-11:50pm Please for the Exam Be ON TIME Bring a CALCULATOR for Unit-Conversion Problems Send me an eMAIL if you want to know your Exam & Course Score/Grade Final Exam Notifications
The Final Exam is SEMIcomprehensive 90+% of content is taken from Material Covered AFTER the MidTerm Exam The Remaining portion will cover BROAD themes developed Over the entire term Some Examples of these “Broad-Based” Questions might be Define “Engineering” What is the main difference between SCIENCE and ENGINEERING? List two projects that an INDUSTRIAL Engineer might work on. Final Exam Content
Suggested Study Strategy • CAREFULLY Review all PostMidTerm Class (BMayer) Lecture Presentations • On ENGR10 WebPage • CAREFULLY Review all PostMidTerm Guest Lecture Material • Presentations • BioGraphies and/or Resumes • Review TextBook Material that is directly Related to the HW assignments
Final Note • My Personal Thanks to Everyone in ENGR 10 for His/Her: • Time • Attention • Effort • And, Most Significantly: • The Courtesy Afforded ALL of the GUEST SPEAKERS who VOLUNTEERED Their Time to Educate Us About An Aspect of Engineering Practice or Education
