Engineering is applied Physics. It is the scientific technical field which involves the design, build, testing, and practical application of Physics principles, for the purpose of solving societal problems in innovative ways. This minor is intended for students having a keen interest in robotic and mechatronic systems.
Students will learn about engineering modeling, analysis and design, CAD software, sensor and actuator dynamics, programming, and system control. These courses outline modern engineering methodologies, in practical, hands-on ways. Students with this minor are well prepared for advanced manufacturing and industrial jobs requiring knowledge of automation. This minor may be readily combined with adjacent majors of Physics and Computer Science.
