Contribution to professional component

Contribution of course to meeting the professional component:
The most measurable long-term outcome from this course is the student’s resulting ability to identify, formulate and organize heat transfer problems in conceptual form as well as in terms of mathematical and physical models. Visualization of problem, formulation of the heat transfer problem in mathematical terms, and solution of the problem is emphasized.

Relationship to program outcomes

This course lays the technical and problem solving basis for:

1. ENES 220 – Mechanics of Materials
2. ENES 221 – Dynamics
