Previously we talked about how big engineering programs have several pros and cons. In this article we’re going to talk about the pros and cons of small engineering colleges so let’s get started. We’ll...
What is Intermediate Dynamics? Intermediate Dynamics is the course that follows a sophomore-level Dynamics class. In the sophomore-level course students learn about dynamics of particles and get an introduction to rigid body dynamics in...
A bad lab partner – chances are you’ve had one or will get one at some point in your college career especially if you’re an engineering student. Having to work with someone like this...
What is Fluid Mechanics? Fluids is one of the courses that is fundamental for majors such as mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineering. Aerospace majors typically take an aerodynamics course in place of fluids but...
I can’t say enough great things about MATLAB. It’s super powerful, can make some awesome plots with minimal effort, and it’s a great way to start learning programming. Many engineering programs now require MATLAB...
Thermodynamics is one of the most useful courses out there, but it’s also one of the most difficult. You’ll learn all about pressure, density, work, energy, and a lot more. Although it’s a super...
System Dynamics and Controls is one of my favorite classes to teach! It’s got lots of fundamentals in it that are actually very useful. This is where you get to put your knowledge from...
Are you a STEM student about to embark on another semester of math? If so, this post is meant for you! First things first. Have you ever said “I just can’t do math”? If...
Growing up, l always knew that I wanted to be a teacher. I just always thought I’d teach math. Instead, I ended up being an engineer and teaching engineering. And it is AWESOME! Engineering...
