CURRENT ISSUES IN INTERNATIONAL ENGINEERING

INTEREGR 397

Communication for engineering, science, and technology; theory and practice in planning, preparing, and critiquing reports, proposals, and workplace correspondence; persuasive argumentation, ethical decision-making strategies, multidisciplinary communication skills, research strategies, collaborative work; oral presentations.

INTEREGR 130

Introduction to mechanics and applications in engineering, including introduction to free body diagrams, spatial awareness, and how to use vectors in engineering applications.

EPD 613

Provides a deeper understanding of various elements of culture related to business, avoiding the pitfalls, and finding the complementary strengths that will benefit the business. International strategy and the managerial implications such as product, country, location, and organization choices for a multinational engineering operation will be assessed, analyzed and applied. Further discussion will be focused on multi-cultural organization issues and exploring best practices.

INTEREGR 601

Interdisciplinary topics of special interest to undergrad and grad students in engineering.

INTEREGR 170
