Course Description

This course is a freshman engineering course that introduces students to computer programming for engineers using MATLAB. The course includes manipulation of functions that range from general math operations, string manipulation, and scientific plotting to domain-specific toolboxes, such as statistics, signal and image processing, efficient matrix, and array computations. The course also includes easy creation of scientific and engineering graphics, which make the course particularly useful for engineering students. NOTE: ENGR 1010, 1020, 2010, and 2020 are part of a partnership between MCC and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's College of Engineering for direct transfer into the engineering program.
