Undergraduate Catalog Academic Year 2014 Course Descriptions Numerical Code For the engineering and technology courses, the following numerical codes are used. • The first digit indicates the level of difficulty. • The second digit indicates the course groups. For common courses, the above codes do not apply. The numbers after each course (e.g., 3(3-0-6)) represent the credits, lecture hours, laboratory/practice hours, and self study hours, respectively. Prerequisite / Corequisite Requirements It is the responsibility of the student to meet all prerequisite and corequisite requirements. Students may not be allowed to take a course if its prerequisites have not been satisfactorily passed. A corequisite course must be taken concurrently or must have been previously passed. CES201 Engineering Materials 3(3-0-6) Prerequisite: None Metals, plastics, asphalt, wood, cementitious materials, and concrete as engineering materials. Phase equilibrium diagrams and their interpretation. Testing and meaning of properties. Study of macro and microstructures in relationship with properties of engineering materials. Production processes for products using engineering materials. Deterioration and corrosion of engineering materials. CES202 Introduction to Building Facilities 3(3-0-6) Prerequisite: None Introduction to thermofluid science for buildings, building system, components and environment in buildings.

Student must submit a report at the end of the training period. Satisfactory (S) or unsatisfactory (U) grade will be given based on student's performance, quality of the report, and supervisor's comments.
