Engineering Learning Community
The Engineering Learning Community in Reilly Hall and McConnell Hall connects freshman students studying:
- electrical engineering
- mechanical, engineering
- civil engineering
- environmental engineering
Join this
group if you want to:
- gain the tools, knowledge, and perspectives you
need to become a leader within the engineering profession
- enjoy inners with faculty, laboratory tours,
social events, study skills workshops, academic and career planning sessions,
and technical seminars from upperclassmen, graduate students, faculty and/or
professionals
- meet other students and study buddies in
engineering programs
Priority enrollment
Seats in certain high-demand, major-based classes will be
reserved for Engineering Learning Community residents. Your adviser will help
you enroll in these courses. Visit Priority Enrollment to find out more about enrollment and advising.
Seats will be reserved in:
Fall semester:
- MAT 125 – Precalculus:
covers the concepts of function, graphs, absolute value, linear, polynomial,
rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, and systems of
equations, in addition to analytic geometry. Students in the learning community
will be enrolled in the same section of this course.
OR - MAT 136 - Calculus I:
building on the foundations of pre-calculus, this course covers the calculus of
one variable including basic concepts, interpretations, techniques, and
applications of differentiation and integration. Students in the learning
community will be enrolled in the same section of this course.
AND - EGR 186 - Intro to
Engineering Design: students are introduced to the design
process, problem-solving techniques, teaming skills, oral and written
communication skills, and tools for success in academic and professional
careers. Multiple hands-on projects are also included. Students in the learning
community will be enrolled in the same section of this course.
Spring Semester:
- MAT 136 - Calculus I:
building on the foundations of precalculus, this course covers the calculus of
one variable including basic concepts, interpretations, techniques, and
applications of differentiation and integration. Students in the learning
community will be encouraged to enroll in the same section of this course.
OR - MAT 137 - Calculus II:
building on Calculus I, this course covers concepts, techniques, and
applications of integration, differential equations, Taylor polynomials, and
infinite series. Students in the learning community will be encouraged to
enroll in the same section of this course.
