MATH 159 or MATH 153/154 – Algebra and Trigonometry - This course covers college level Algebra and Trigonometry necessary for most Engineering and Engineering Technology courses.
MET 11100 – Applied Statics – Study of force systems, resultants and equilibrium, trusses, frames, centroids of areas, and center of gravity of bodies.
MET 21100 – Applied Strength of Materials – Study of the principles of strength, stiffness, and stability are introduced and applied to primarily mechanical components.
MET 21300 – Dynamics – Study of kinematics and kinetics principles of rigid-body dynamics with emphasis on the analysis of bodies in plane motion.
MET 22000 – Heat and Power – Introduction to the principles of thermodynamics and heat transfer including the processes used to evaluate the performance of energy based systems such as internal combustion engines.
MET 27200 – Introduction to Motorsports – This course will cover the organization of the motorsports industry and the sport of auto racing, will investigate different segments of the sport and the industry, and will survey careers available.
MET 42600 – Internal Combustion Engines – Study of spark ignition and compression ignition engines and their cycles, their mechanical principles, and their application.
MET 47200 – Vehicle Dynamics – This course will address the basics of chassis design, suspension tuning, vehicle aerodynamics, and vehicle system integration.
MET 41400 / MET 49700 / MET 29900 – These courses all involve student projects and as part of the Motorsports Certificate program, a selected project must be automotive related.
