UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE COURSES
GE 210.3
Probability and Statistics
1(3L-1.5P)
Prerequisite(s): A course in calculus (may be Calculus 30).

Introduces the student to the concepts of probability and statistics using examples from various fields of engineering.

Note: Students who wish to use this course toward an Arts & Science credit should first refer to Statistics Course Regulations in the Arts & Science section of the Calendar.

GE 213.3
Mechanics of Materials
1/2 (3L-1.5P)
Prerequisite(s): GE 124 and GE 125 (taken).

Building upon the concepts introduced in the courses in statics and dynamics and the properties of engineering materials, this course extends equilibrium analysis to deformable bodies. Emphasis is placed on understanding and applying the three fundamental concepts of solid mechanics - equilibrium, constitutive relationships, and geometry of deformation (compatibility). The fundamentals are introduced and reinforced in the context of specific behaviors, including axial tension and compression, pure bending, bending in combination with shear, and torsion of circular shafts. Transformation of stress in two dimensions is introduced.

GE 226.3
Mechanics III
2(3L-1.5P)
Prerequisite(s): GE 125 and MATH 223 (taken).

Studies the mechanics (kinematics and kinetics) of plane motion. Velocity and acceleration for translational and rotational motion are treated. The force-acceleration, impulse-momentum, and work-energy methods for systems undergoing two-dimensional dynamics are discussed in detail.
