ENGR 100 Introduction to Engineering (two sections online and in-person)
UC and CSU transferable
Explores the different Engineering majors, disciplines and job types. Students learn
engineering study skills and the Engineering Design Process through a hands-on project.
Required course for all engineering majors.
Prerequisites: None
ENGR 111 SOLIDWORKS I (in-person)
ENGR 111 is an introductory Engineering Technology class about 3D modeling and design
in SOLIDWORKS. SOLIDWORKS and 3D modeling skills are very important for Mechanical
and Aerospace Engineering jobs.
Prerequisite: ENGR 101 or ENGR 122
ENGR 122 Engineering Graphics (in-person)
ENGR 122 is the required Computer Aided Design course for Mechanical, Aerospace, Manufacturing,
Civil, and Biomedical Engineering majors. Students learn to create engineering drawings
and engineering design.
ENGR 125 Programming Methodologies for Engineers (in-person)
Engineering programming course for electrical and computer engineering majors
Prerequisite: MATH 103E
ENGR 141 Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory (in-person)
Laboratory for ENGR 140
ENGR 152 Engineering Mechanics - Statics (online)
UC and CSU Transferable
ENGR 152 is the most important course for mechanical and civil engineering majors
as it is the first course in engineering problem solving. Statics is the first in
a critical path sequence of courses that includes Strength of Materials, Machine Design
(for ME’s and AE's), Structures (for CE’s) and Senior Design I and II. Taking Statics
before transferring can shorten the path to completion of the BS degree.
Prerequisite: PHYSICS 101 and MATH 104
ENGR 156 - Programming and Problem Solving in MATLAB (in-person)
ENGR 156 is the required programming course for civil and mechanical engineering majors.
Electrical and computer engineering majors sometimes take this course in order to
learn MATLAB for use in industry and a number of GCC students have gotten internships
that use MATLAB. Students learn how to use MATLAB as an engineering calculation and
simulation tool and also basic programming.
Prerequisites: MATH 103E
ENGR 230 - Dynamics (online)
ENGR 230 is the second course in Engineering Mechanics. Although this course has
wide articulation, check with your transfer institution to be sure it is accepted
in your university program.
Prerequisite: ENGR 152 Statics
ENGR 240 Electrical Engineering Fundamentals (in-person)
ENGR 240 is an introduction to the theory and analysis of electrical circuits and
is a prerequisite course for many electrical engineering transfer pathways as well
as a required course for nearly all engineering disciplines, including mechanical,
computer, aerospace, manufacturing engineering and some civil engineering programs.
Topics include basic circuit elements such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, operational
amplifiers, circuit theorems, direct and alternating current circuits, forced and
natural responses of simple circuits, sinusoidal steady state analysis and the use
of computer-aided circuit analysis programs.
Prerequisite: PHY 102 and MATH 105
Corequisite: MATH 108
