ENES 202 Computing Fundamentals for Engineers

This course is an introduction to modern computational tools for the solution of engineering problems. Programming fundamentals including branching and loops, functions, file handling, arrays, and data structures will be taught using MATLAB and C++. Students will be introduced to object-oriented programming, basic computing, algorithms, and principles of software engineering. Emphasis will be placed on applications from mechanical, aerospace, and related engineering disciplines.
