EGR-1140 Computer Programming for Engineers and Scientists

3 Credits
This is a high-level introduction to computer tools and computer programming for the engineer and scientist. The goal is to develop within the student sufficient knowledge to perform analysis using common engineering and science programming languages. Topics will include algorithm analysis and solution, program structures, data structures, modular design, and overviews of the computer hardware, various computer tools available to solve real world problems and object-oriented structure. A variety of languages will be introduced such as MATLAB, Fortran, and C with a primary emphasis on one of these languages. The results will be to ensure that from the primary languages a student can easily master the other languages. Along with the aforementioned languages, a number of engineering specific languages such as LABView, Spice, and VHDL will be introduced and practiced in laboratory.
Prerequisite(s): MAT-1360 completed or concurrent with grade of C or higher.
A grade of C or higher is required for any course used to satisfy a prerequisite for any other course.
