    This course provides the student with a brief applied understanding of societal ethics, engineering ethics and personal morals. Steps and procedures in ethical decision making are presented. Famous engineering ethical cases are analyzed to identify common reasons individuals behaved unethically. Tools for how to protect oneself in ethical situations are discussed. Some principles of engineering professionalism are also covered. Prerequisites: Major status in Mechanical Engineering AND NOT on ME Advising Hold

    The purpose of this course is to introduce mathematical concepts and statistical methods used in modern engineering analysis. The goal is to introduce students to analytical and numerical tools that can be used to solve real world engineering problems. Lectures will be supplemented by several programming exercises using R and/or Matlab, and a large number of practical examples on relevant engineering topics. This course covers the role of statistics in engineering, probability theory and distributions, continuous random variables, random sampling, data description, and statistical analyses or a single sample, and common hypothesis testing.
