My academic progress
Covered atomic structure, bonding, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, and the properties of gases, liquids, and solutions, building the chemical foundation needed for materials and process-related engineering work.
Developed skills in writing clear, structured technical documents, including reports, proposals, and summaries, with an emphasis on audience awareness, clarity, and professional communication standards used in engineering.
Studied statics and the mechanics of rigid bodies, including forces, moments, equilibrium, and structural analysis, forming the basis for later work in structural and mechanical design.
Learned programming fundamentals and computational problem-solving techniques applied to engineering problems, including algorithm design, data handling, and numerical methods.
Covered limits, derivatives, and integrals of single-variable functions, along with their applications to optimization, rates of change, and area/volume problems.
Worked through the full engineering design process, from problem definition and research to prototyping and testing via hands-on, team-based design projects.
Studied the fundamentals of digital logic, including Boolean algebra, logic gates, combinational and sequential circuits, and an introduction to digital system design.
Built on Calculus I with techniques of integration, sequences and series, and applications to differential equations and modeling.
Covered vectors, matrices, systems of linear equations, determinants, and eigenvalues/eigenvectors, with applications relevant to engineering systems and transformations.
Studied core physics principles including mechanics, energy, and motion, with an emphasis on problem-solving and laboratory techniques applied to real engineering contexts.
