Week 1

ENES101 Introduction to Engineering:Engineering Programs at UMBC

Fall 2015

Dr. Chuck LaBerge

Dr. Anne Spence


Week 1

About MATLAB!

Yes, we will use MATLAB a lot

! Using UMBC Resources

! All campus computers have access to MATLAB

! You can establish a virtual terminal and access itfrom anywhere

!

But, there are only a limited number of licenses toshare

! Having your own

! I own MATLAB + 1 toolbox for my business:

$3500 + $500/year! You can own a fully functional student version for

$99 (includes MATLAB and 10 toolboxes); or,

! A student version for $49 + $10 per toolbox

! It is useful for almost every engineering course!




Week 1

What does an engineer do?

! What does an engineer do?

! Apply math and science:

! Engineers are mathematiciansand scientists

! Design solutions

! Engineers are problem solvers

! Manage projects

! Almost all engineers needrudimentary project management

skills…! …some need additional project

management training

Week 1

Why are you here?

! Good at Math/Science?

! Like Math/Science?

! Engineering experience in HS (PLTW)

! Family member is an engineer

! There are good jobs for engineers

! There are good jobs…

! …but they go to good engineering students…

! …not to mediocre engineering students.

! “C’s get degrees”… But not engineering jobs




Week 1

Yes, there are good jobs!

! You have to be careful about job statistics…

! …but multiple surveys agree that engineering jobspay very well

! These are average or median salaries for goodengineering students

! Median = 50th percentile

! Average = S =1

Week 1

National Association of Colleges and Employers




Week 1

But…

! The salaries are good because the subject matter isdifficult…

! Everyone can’t do this!

! There’s LOTS OF MATH…and SCIENCE…

! …and very detailed and complex (no pun) material

! You will put in lots of work to earn these salaries,both as a student and as a worker


Week 1
