Prerequisites: undergraduate calculus and differential equations.

Students will learn fundamental principles of molecular biology and fluid dynamics as they relate to human physiology and disease, with a focus on the cardiovascular, lymphatic and pulmonary systems. The relationship between the forces applied by the blood to blood vessels and heart, lymph to lymphatic vessels and air to the pulmonary airways are explored via formal lectures and journal article discussions. The course will also cover various experimental systems used to quantify cell response to forces. Students will be introduced to concepts of scientific writing.

This course is designed to be a one semester introduction into aerospace propulsion systems with an emphasis on gas turbine and rocket engines. The aero-thermodynamics of these devices will be analyzed using fundamental engineering concepts from thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.

To examine the fundamental relationships between the organization of the workplace, the flow of people, materials, parts and information, and the optimal performance of these system components. Manufacturing and service organizations require that undergraduates of the Industrial Engineering and Operations Research curriculum be grounded in the fundamental concepts, tools, and techniques for planning, design, and analysis of the physical environment and configuration of systems along with the ability to evaluate the dynamic interchanges which interrelates the system components.

Energy sources and power systems used by industry and utilities to produce electricity, mechanical power, process heating and cooling are examined for energy efficiency and economic feasibility. Analysis and design of thermal systems and specific components are considered. Prerequisites: M&I-Eng 340 and 354.
