Transforming Ideas to Innovation#
ENGR 133 covers the following topics during the semester:
Data analytics (calculations, descriptive statistics, histograms, probability, charts, and regression).
Academic integrity and ethics.
Communication (reports, peer review, and information literacy).
Teaming (team dynamics, team member roles, diversity, and code of cooperation).
Team projects (modeling and design).
Excel basics (calculations, importing data, relational operators, plotting data).
Python basics (scripts, data types, importing data, relational operators, logical operators, plotting data, user-defined functions, selection structures, while loops, for loops, and nested loops).
MATLAB basics (calculations, scripts, importing data, publishing code, relational operators, logical operators, plotting data, user-defined functions, selection structures, while loops, for loops, and nested loops).
Overview of engineering majors offered by Purdue University.
