        Three Courses Joint UNCA - NC State University Engineering Program 





        The Academic Policies Committee recommends to the Faculty Senate

        approval of the following three courses as part of the joint

        UNCA - NC State University Engineering Program:



        ENGR 100 Introduction to Engineering (1) 



        An introduction to the joint university program, the School of

        Engineering, and the engineering profession.  Topics include

        general academic requirements and special educational

        opportunities, the history of engineering, professionalism in

        ethics, the nature and scope of engineering, and departmental

        presentations conveying the special characteristics and differences

        in engineering as practiced by the specialty areas within the

        profession.  





        ENGR 201 Structure and Properties of Engineering Materials (3) 



        An introduction to the fundamental physical principles governing

        the structure and constitution of metallic and non-metallic

        materials of construction, and the relation of these principles to

        the control of properties.  Prerequisites:  Chem 141 and 142 





        ENGR 206 Engineering Statics (3) 



        Basic concepts, forces and equilibrium, distributive forces,

        virtual work, and inertial properties; application to machines,

        structures and systems.  Prerequisite:  Phys 221 and corequisite

        Math 201 



        --------------------------- 



        These courses are to be offered in accordance with the joint

        agreement approved by the Chancellors of UNCA and NCSU in June,

        1980.  The courses have been reviewed and approved by the School of

        Engineering, N C State University.  



        The instructor resources will come from adjunct professors

        recruited locally.  No instructional resources are required from

        UNCA.  



        It is recommended that a course numbering system be adopted as

        indicated with the above courses.  This would use ENGR to designate

        UNCA courses with the numbers corresponding to the courses at NCSU. 





        Effective Date:  Fall, 1981 





                         (Passed by Faculty Senate 4/2/81)
