This survey course exposes students to some of the major concepts that they will encounter in a postsecondary engineering course of study. Through problems that engage and challenge, students explore a broad range of engineering topics, including mechanisms, the strength of materials and structures, automation, and kinematics. Students will design/build/test competition VEX robots using VEX materials and components. One goal will be to compete in at least two VEX events before the end of the semester.
