A two year, team taught, well coordinated sequence of courses will be designed and implemented that will integrate topics in linear algebra, calculus and calculus based courses in the typical pre-engineering curriculum. The sequence will integrate topics normally covered in calculus, vector calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, introductory physics, and engineering courses such as statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, and circuits. The transitions from the geometry and analysis of mathematics to the principles of physics to the engineering applications will appear seamless. Common ideas in mathematics, physics, and engineering will be presented with mutually supporting viewpoints in a timely and mutually reinforcing way. The capabilities of calculators and computers will be used as an integral part of the project to assist the student in report writing and oral presentations as well as in visualizing the geometric and analytic interrelations and interdependences of the physical laws, and the application of these physical laws in solving practical engineering problems. Course materials suitable for commercial publication are anticipated.

一个为期两年的，团队授课，协调良好的课程序列将被设计和实施，将在线性代数，微积分和微积分为基础的课程，在典型的工程预科课程整合的主题。该序列将整合通常涵盖微积分，向量微积分，线性代数， 微分方程，物理学入门， 和工程课程，如静力学，动力学，热力学和电路。从几何和数学分析到物理学原理再到工程应用的过渡将是无缝的。在数学，物理， 和工程将提出与 以及时和相辅相成的方式相互支持观点。 计算器和计算机的能力将被用作项目的一个组成部分，以帮助学生撰写报告和口头陈述，以及可视化物理定律的几何和分析相互关系和相互依赖性，以及这些物理定律在解决问题中的应用。 实际工程问题。 当然 预期有适合商业出版的材料。
