[MA1513] Linear Algebra with Differential Equation

This is a seven-week course specially designed for students majoring in Engineering. It introduces the basic concepts in linear algebra with applications in engineering. Major topics: Matrix algebra, linear system of equations, vector spaces, linear independence, basis, orthogonality, rank, linear transformations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, diagonalisation, linear systems of differential equations, linearisation of nonlinear systems.

Many engineering problems involve natural processes and phenomena that are inherently random. Engineers have to evaluate the risk-benefits trade-offs, in order to make decisions in design and planning under conditions of uncertainties. This module covers the fundamental principles and tools of probability and statistics, and how engineers can employ these tools to evaluate problems involving uncertainty. Topics include: basic probability concepts, random variables and functions thereof, probability distributions, statistical inference, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis. Students will also be taught how to use computational tools such as Matlab to perform Monte Carlo simulations, to solve engineering problems involving uncertainty.

[CE2407A] Uncertainty Analysis for Engineers

[EG2401A] Engineering Professionalism

This course aims to alert and sensitise students on the kinds of situations that may arise in his professional career and teaches students to improve his/her skills in appreciating and dealing with the moral challenges posed by such situations. Students will acquire skills in dealing with ethical issues, learn about the 'codes of ethics' set by professional bodies and intellectual property rights and protection.

[EG3611A] Industrial Attatchment

This internship module is for students who are admitted into the B.Eng. degree requiring a compulsory 24-week internship. The type of internship varies according to the programmes. Internships integrate knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skill development in a professional setting. It enables students to learn about the latest developments in the industries and to interact with engineers and other professionals as they join projects or tasks that help to develop or enhance their skills whilst contributing to the organization. Students can apply for the approved internships publicised by the faculty or seek approval for self-sourced internships.
