Courses You Must Go Through As An Enginner by Skoopy(m): 10:52am On Feb 14, 2015
For every graduate of engineering, you must have gone through most of the courses I will list below, if not all. This courses are so important that it is near impossible to graduate without having a fair knowledge of them.

1) Thermodynamics : this is the study of heat and temperature in relation to energy and work. The desire to improve on the efficiency of steam engines lead to the development of this course. Terms such as enthalpy, entropy, energy and pressure will be used often in the said course. Thermodynamics have four basic laws, but this cannot be handled here.

2)FLUID MECHANICS : This has to do with the study of fluids (liquids and gases), it is divided broadly into two, FLUID STATICS and FLUID DYNAMICS. With the former taking care of fluids with no sheer stress( ie fluids at rest) and the latter handling fluids in motion. Base on flow, we have compressible and in compressible fluid whose difference lie in their rate of flow with density change. Two most common but very important theories include those of newton's on viscosity and archimedes on floatation. Applications include in aviation sector, shipping / maritime, refineries, production of breweries etc.

3) CALCULUS / ADVANCE CALCULUS : This is an extension of further mathematics, has topics like polynomial, matrices and determinant, integration and differentiation and the most feared of virtually all engineering students Laplace transformation. The application of which cannot be under -estimated.

4) DESIGN/ STRUCTURAL DESIGN/ EQUIPMENT DESIGN/ PROCESS CONTROL.

5) TECHNICAL / ENGINEERING DRAWING. Before any construction/ fabrication work is carried out, it most be properly represented on paper with dimensions.

All engineers on naira land, how many of this courses did you pass through? None engineers who love the profession are also welcome.

Let's call that "CALCULUS" ENGINEERING ANALYSIS. It's the all encompassing toolbox for problem solving. Modules include Convolution theory, Second order non-linear differentials, Advanced Matrices (Choleski's & Gaussian) etc.
FLUID MECHANICS Pressure equations from Pascal's law is applied in advanced Hydraulics Engineering to facilitate Pipeline Water Supply Schemes, Open channel drains, canals, Reservoirs, Water Enbankment etc.
STRENGTH OF MATERIALS modules introduces Forces, Stress, Moments of Inertia, Torsion, Shear, Deflection in materials and structures.
ENGINEERING MECHANICS..Magnitudes of forces, Support reactions, Resultants, Vectors, Tension/Compression.
.
More Later...

I know how hard chemical plant design can be. Some students write theirs for ages while some don't even know how to start
but
that's in the past
check out this chemical engineering plant design

Chemical Plant Design - Production of 4-Hydroxy 2- Butanone by the Dehydrogenation of 2, 4- Hydroxy Butanol

N/B no matter your department www.uniprojectsearch.com has project, thesis, dissertation topics and materials for you
