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.
I searched your list for Mathematical Modelling. Chai! I don't know what relevance the course seeks to serve but it always made me sad and almost made me mad.

One absurd. course that made Okoh, (PhD) of the Uniport feel like he had the formula for operating the universe.

This remind me of these courses: STATISTICS IN ENGINEERING. There is this topic that scared us that time & we rename that course by the name of that topic ''POISON'' but I like the course when it comes to construction of ANOVA TABLE, REGRESSION & CORRELATION. God saved me, I managed to scale through. Also this course, NUMERICAL METHODS. I hate this topic under it RINGE KUTTA METHOD, especially when you're taking about 4th, 5th......orders. But I like SIMPSON'S RULE, GAUSS-SEIDEL ITERATION, NEWTON GREGORY FORMULA....

Esut did all. Ordinary differential equation is not a course, its just one of d topics in engineering analysis.

The need for knowledge of STRENGTH OF MATERIAL can not over emphasis, with the Knowledge of shear stress and bending moment. Engineers can select the appropriate material for any design....

Yes those courses were part of our course and compulsory couses we passed thru in our first. Degree.

Laplace tranforms turned out to be easier than I was told. As well as every other course on the Op's list. All of which I'm taking.

Nigerian students have this annoying habit of telling their juniors how hard and difficult and tedious courses were, even to the point of exaggerating. I don't know why. And I probably never will.

Interesting courses in Engineering esppecially Elect Elect, wit Matlab nd autocad, u r gud to go.

Wow,its unbelievable my comment in a thread of over a year this morning pushed it to FP.
The saying goes that someone can help you get to the promise land,he just has to be at the right place at the right time.
Re: Courses You Must Go Through As An Enginner by faksy(m): 2:50pm On May 22, 2016
the best kind of engineering is chemical engineering as far as those courses are concern because chemical engineers play with those course from year 1to5 even on the field.

Are you kidding me,those courses you mentioned above are big bonuses,and are easy. Like I said earlier you just need to grasp the basics.

thank your God you're been taught by someone who knows it. I did Mech engrn....when it was time to do INSTRUMENTATIONS AND CONTROL, under which we did LA'place, the man just comes to class, talks some rubbish then leave. the man no sabi anything.... I managed to get E at the end o! I never had time to go settle down non Laplace alone when I had 10 other courses I was doing. now I regret not knowing it, coz I need it so much now.

Our lecturers are the problems we have. MAKE IT INTERESTING, THEN WE'LL LOVE IT

Runge kutta is a topic in Numerical methods in 400l advanced engineering mathematics(GEG 401) it's quite tedious and very tricky.
Goons from unilag will attest to this

Yes , but it's one of the easier aspects in numerics. I enjoyed the brain play and flow with it.

Maybe the person who taught you made it seem tedious. And please, don't call them goons again. grin
Unilag goons grin cheesy
