FED 101 - Fundamentals of Engineering Design (2-1-2)
Corequisite: HSS 099 or HSS 101 and Math 103 or Math 104 or Math 111. Teams of students work on open-ended engineering projects. Sections are offered to represent an introduction to real-world engineering design problems in a specific engineering discipline. Topics covered include introduction to basic engineering design elements, processes, measurements, product and project design and development, with hands-on experiments in a specific major area. Students also learn to use engineering tools for computer-aided design and simulation. Technical writing and oral presentation along with project management skills are emphasized. Students are required to take an FED section corresponding to their declared major. Undecided students will be placed in FED sections which best correspond to their interests according to space availability.

FED 101C - Fundamentals of Engineering Design, Computer Aided Design/Graphics Component (0-2.25-1)
Corequisite: HSS 100 in the spring or HSS 101 in the fall. Study technical graphics and the computer as a technical drawing tool. Introduces projections and multiview drawings and visualization. Discuss geometry commonly used in engineering design graphics, orthographic projections, dimensioning techniques, tolerancing and introduction to auxiliary and sectional views. Apply software program pro/ENGINEER to various problems. Interdisciplinary course coordinated by the Office of the Dean, Freshman Studies and through the Office of the Dean, Newark College of Engineering.
